The Rangers are putting Brandon McCarthy on the disabled list because of his blister. It's just not getting any better. Kameron Loe is expected to pitch on Thursday
Oops, forgot to mention TR: I remember Oddibe McDowell's stabbing himself with a very blunt butter knife at a pre-season banquet once and going on the disabled list before the season opened....and some other stooge (a Ranger, of course) went on the DL due to a bad pitching index finger. Seems this "genius" had the consistent habit of flicking sunflower seeds with his pitching hand index finger, and doing it so much, he got a form of carpal tunnel syndome. This is about true brilliance, a Ranger mainstay.....of course, Brandon McCarthy's was pitching-related, so he gets a pass on this one. I only mentioned the previous situations to see if anyone else remembered these? (Cough, Hack....GO RANGERS!!!)
***** I Transposed these two entries. Sorry. *****
Why am I not suprised, the way this season has gone, that one of the few bright spots recently is felled...by....a blister.
Goodness gracious sakes alive! What can possibly happen next???
TR, can you take Toby to Tom Hick's private box and have Toby personally chew up all the player contracts so we could just start over? That would be a first step. TR would know more about this, but can an owner void a contract, by some small-print language, due to non-performance or fraud reasons? If there was ever a case for voiding contracts due to perpetrating a fraud AND non-performance, THIS TEAM is it!!!! GO Toby----GRRRRR!
Somebody get Brandon a message: When Nolan Ryan had blister problems early in his career, pickle brine (juice) did the trick. You can look this up or just call Nolan, isn't he a consultant?
