Yu Darvish Placed on Restricted List by Padres

Veteran pitcher steps away indefinitely to address personal family matter, impacting team's rotation depth.

Darvish has been dealing with injuries, including a groin strain and elbow inflammation.
He last pitched on May 29 and was nearing a return before this personal matter arose.
Players on the restricted list do not count against the roster and do not receive salary or service time.
Darvish's absence compounds the Padres' rotation issues, with Joe Musgrove also sidelined.
The team may need to seek rotation reinforcements ahead of the trade deadline.
