Beasley aims to be with Rangers in postseason

ARLINGTON -- Rangers coach Tony Beasley is back with the team this weekend and is hoping to be with them through the postseason as he completes his recovery from rectal cancer.

Beasley has been on limited duty since the beginning of Spring Training while undergoing chemotherapy and radiation treatments. He underwent surgery last month and will start one more round of chemotherapy on Monday in Arlington.

"The surgery went well," Beasley said. "The tumor has been reduced almost to scar tissue. They took out 27 lymph nodes, and only one was cancerous. They told me there is a very low percentage of recurrence.
