Player Notes
November 13, 2009
Ben Sheets says he plans to be ready for Spring Training next season, according t ESPN.

Our View:File this one under "believe it when you see it." If teams do see it, however, expect there to be a lot of interest in the 31-year-old (former?) power pitcher.
October 23, 2009
Ben Sheets expects to bounce back in 2010, according to MLB.com.

Our View:Sheets missed all of the 2009 campaign after undergoing surgery in February to repair a torn flexor tendon in his right arm. He is currently participating in a flat-ground throwing program, and expects to be ready to go for the start of next season. The former ace hurler could potentially be a hot target on the free agent market. Sheets did not disclose any teams that he may like to pitch for.
July 18, 2009
Ben Sheets continues to progress in his recovery from February elbow surgery, according to Buster Olney of ESPN.

Our View:This is encouraging, but it remains uncertain if Sheets will be able to pitch at some point this season. He is only worth holding in the deepest of fantasy leagues as a flier.
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.
