BMac is Back
T.R. Sullivan reports that Brandon McCarthy is in the Rangers' clubhouse, and says McCarthy expects to start for the Rangers on Saturday. Better late than never with McCarthy, who, one hopes, can fin...

BTIA has a great analysis of Brandon McCarthy's past 18 months or so in Texas, and in particular, the chronology of problems and the public statements being made (particularly from Mark Connor) a...
