He is a huge liability with his injuries and you can't count on him to be available for the big game. His win loss totals are partially because he was on bad teams, but also partially because the Brewers were using 8 batters in each game he pitched. Sheets has to be the most incompetent hitter to ever step into a major league batter box, worse than Randy Johnson even. A monkey had a better chance to come up with a hit or bunt. All that being said Sheets should still get a big paycheck, but its only gonna come from a crazy GM that has the luxury of deep pockets that can absorb a high price mistake. I can't stand the Yankees so nothing would be funnier than to see him turn into Carl Pavano Jr in the Bronx.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275727040983261898.post-80348842423067387262008-10-15T14:59:00.000-05:002008-10-15T14:59:00.000-05:00So...he's going to get paid.

I was definitely hard on him at the end of this season, but he's a very good pitcher.<BR/><BR/>And when we can't sign CC, and Ben walks, and we've got Gallardo, Parra, Bush, Suppan, and...eh...Tommy John Capuano? Well...how does THAT feel?Charlie Marlowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17049094494992258829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275727040983261898.post-5348975929716693752008-10-15T13:55:00.000-05:002008-10-15T13:55:00.000-05:00anonymous are you the one that owes me 2 free hour...anonymous are you the one that owes me 2 free hours of drinks when he gets over 10 million a year?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275727040983261898.post-42671779501966665582008-10-15T13:42:00.000-05:002008-10-15T13:42:00.000-05:00Career .500 pitcher...sigh.

Do you think he was a below average pitcher that year? <BR/><BR/>Pitchers are a big risk in general. But a pitcher of Sheets' caliber deserves that sort of bread.woziszeushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01651583560586474837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275727040983261898.post-70810556423862531502008-10-15T13:21:00.000-05:002008-10-15T13:21:00.000-05:00$12-14 million per year for a career .500 pitcher ...$12-14 million per year for a career .500 pitcher (when he's healthy)???<BR/><BR/>that's a big, big risk.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
