"Yesterday, indications surfaced that the Sox have also had discussions with the Milwaukee Brewers regarding Ben Sheets. Sheets, 29, was 12-5 with a 3.82 ERA for the Brewers last year and has won in double figures in six of his seven seasons in the big leagues, but due to injuries hasn't made more than 24 starts in any of the last three seasons."
What say you? Interested? Not?
I could see this being the kind of deal Coco would be involved in, especially considering the issues this guy had last season both offensively and defensively.
What else might be required? No f'in clue.
Obviously, there's the easily voiced reservations about injury history, etc. And he did post a 1.238 WHIP in the NL Central.
Also, that Hank Steinbrenner is hilarious, no?
Oh. And, during the day today, try to find a Yankee fan who's obsessed with the idea that Beckett will be pushing like mad to re-negotiate his contract if the Sox trade for and sign Santana. ...it won't be difficult.
I don't think he would, and does he have the kind of body of work-leverage to make such a thing reality?
