After an itinerant major league career, Brandon McCarthy is grateful the Los Angeles Dodgers are giving him the chance to grow with a contender.
The Dodgers finalized a four-year, $48 million contract with McCarthy on Tuesday, designating reliever Brian Wilson for assignment to make room for the right-hander.
McCarthy eagerly agreed to the deal with his favorite childhood team, seizing the chance to replace Dan Haren as the NL West champions' fourth starter alongside Clayton Kershaw, Zack Greinke and Ryu Hyun-jin.
