ARLINGTON — The Texas Rangers announced today that starting pitcher Brandon McCarthy will be out for an extended period of time. The tall right-hander is sidelined with a stress fracture in his right shoulder blade and will be out for "several weeks," according to Rangers general manager Jon Daniels.
It is a similar injury to the one that sidelined him for almost a month late in the 2007 season. This will be the fourth time in three years that McCarthy has gone on the disabled list.
McCarthy, who is 5-2 with a 4.92 ERA in 11 starts, came out of his most recent start against the Yankees feeling some soreness. An examination on Monday revealed the stress fracture in the shoulder blade.
Doug Mathis, who was 4-2 with a 2.89 in 10 starts for Triple-A Oklahoma, will start on Tuesday. Matt Harrison may also be available to come off the disabled list soon.
