He missed the chance for a victory as Warner Madrigal blew a save in the seventh inning and the RedHawks lost 2-1 to Iowa in the second game of a double header. McCarthy, who struck out seven and threw only 74 pitches, seems to be a lock to start one of the two Rangers games Tuesday as they face ...

Sullivan at MLB.com chatted with Rangers GM Jon Daniels, who is going to turn to Doug Mathis for the open rotation spot for now. But he didn't rule out the possibility of a deal to shore up the position:"'I'm open to it,' Daniels said. 'It's something we'll look into, but
 it's easier said than done. My expectation is we'll go with the guys...

Guillen never called out McCarthy's orientation. Jay Mariotti wasn't so fortunate last year. Guillen may be a prick, he may be an ass, but he's sure as hell entertaining. Ozzie drove McCarthy back where he belonged: the world of irrelevance.
