Darvish (elbow) played catch out to 90 feet Monday, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

Darvish had his throwing program temporarily halted after experiencing some soreness following a rehab start with Double-A San Antonio on May 14, but the issue was never deemed a setback, and the right-hander has since been able to resume playing catch. Per Cassavell, Darvish "didn't look inhibited" in Monday's throwing session, and manager Mike Shildt said after the workout that the veterna is "in a good spot" and is "making steps forward." Still, the Padres don't seem to have a set timeline for Darvish to restart his rehab assignment, which makes his 2025 debut date for the Padres equally hazy.
