The Rangers made the move Wednesday before the finale of their series against Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Harrison (0-2, 8.44 ERA) has been dealing with the issue for a couple of weeks. The DL move is retroactive to Saturday, when the left-hander gave up a pair of two-run home runs in the first inning and allowed five runs in five innings against the Los Angeles Angels.

Analysis: Harrison reported some improvement Tuesday but canceled a bullpen session. General manager Jon Daniels said the club didn't want to "compromise his arm by having him fight through it." Harrison is still scheduled to start Thursday in the series opener at Seattle.

Darvish will start April 2.
Analysis: Harrison led Texas starters in wins and ERA last season, finishing 18-11 with a 3.29 ERA. Darvish was 16-9 with a 3.90 ERA and 221 strikeouts in 191 1-3 innings. Veteran right-hander Colby Lewis drew the first start last year, but won't be available until at least May while recovering from elbow surgery. The previous two opening day starters, Scott Feldman and C.J. Wilson, are no longer with the Rangers.
