The Associated Press reports Texas Rangers SP Brandon McCarthy (shoulder) threw 62 pitches in three innings Friday, March 6, and did not suffer any problems.
Our Instinct: McCarthy should beable to bounce back from the 2008 injury and build upon his 2007 efforts. He might not be ready to help the backend of your rotation, but giving him a spot for $1 on your bench isn’t the worst idea in the world either.
