Eric Gagne threw from a mound for the first time since last July.

Gagne threw off a mound at his Scottsdale, Ariz., home Tuesday and had no issues. Gagne had back surgery last July after just two appearances for the Los Angeles Dodgers. He is expected to report to camp with the rest of the Rangers' pitchers and catchers Saturday and should not have any limitations this spring.

If Gagne is healthy, the Rangers should be able to shorten the game to seven innings. Now they just need to figure how to get there.

David, I think it's unrealistic to think Gagne will be anything close to before. His career path, unbelievable numbers, and ensuing physical breakdown all scream steroid use during his dominant run.
He won't get back anywhere near that, unless he's found the fountain of HGH.
