CHICAGO _ Yu Darvish's struggles took another hit Monday when the Cubs placed him on the 10-day disabled list, retroactive to Friday.
Darvish was sidelined with the flu, the Cubs announced before Monday's game. Darvish is eligible to come off the DL on May 14 against the Braves.
Darvish is 0-3 with a 6.00 ERA after signing a six-year, $126 million contract.
A corresponding move will be made before Tuesday night's game. The Cubs haven't decided on a starter for Tuesday. Jen-Ho Tseng was scratched from his start Monday night for Triple-A Iowa. Tseng is 0-4 with an 8.04 ERA in six starts.
