Player Notes

July 3, 2009
According to ESPN.com's Jayson Stark, the three teams that are interested in Ben Sheets are reporting that he will not be ready to contribute to a major league team this season. Sheets is coming off of flexor tendon surgery in February.

Our View:It was once thought that Sheets could be a major addition for a team making a playoff push in the second half, but it looks now as if there may not be much interest. Don't be shocked if someone still takes a chance on him, but don't expect to see the Ben Sheets everyone is used to.

June 27, 2009
According to MLB.com, the Rangers no longer appear interested in injured starter Ben Sheets.

Our View:Recently considered the leading candidate to land the rehabbing pitcher, the Rangers have come out and said recently that they aren't willing to add payroll for an elite starter at this time. Sheets began performing range of motion exercises in mid-June and projects to be game-ready by August. If healthy, wherever he lands he'll provide a big boost to someone's rotation. If you have room, he'd be an intriguing pick to stash on your roster assuming someone hasn't beat you to the punch.

June 16, 2009
According to Ken Rosenthal of FoxSports.com, the Rangers remain the leading candidate to land injured free agent starter Ben Sheets. Sheets, the former Brewers' ace, is still recovering from elbow surgery.

Our View:The Rangers could desperately use help in their starting rotation, and if Sheets even resembles the pitcher he once was he would be a nice addition. Conventional thinking puts Sheets in a Ranger uniform before season's end, and if and when he does sign with a team he could have instant fantasy value assuming he is healthy.

March 10, 2009
The Rangers remain open to the idea of acquiring injured starter Ben Sheets once he is healed from elbow surgery, according to MLB.com. And though Sheets has reportedly been rehabbing his injury at TMI Sports Medicine in Arlington, Texas, which is owned and operated by Rangers team doctor Keith Meister, general manager Jon Daniels insists the team has had no contact with the pitcher. "There's not a connection there," Daniels said. "I think he lives in Dallas and our club is there. He could have chosen to rehab to anywhere he wanted to."

Our View:A potential two-year deal between the two sides fell through earlier this year when it was reported that Sheets' ailing elbow needed surgery. There is no offer from the Rangers on the table as of now.

February 12, 2009
Ben Sheets had successful surgery on his right elbow, according to Fox Sports.

Our View:Sheets and the doctors involved are optimistic that he can return after the All-Star break. It is unlikely that any team will sign him until he gets closer to returning but he could give a team a lift late in the year.
