Read: Free-Agent Ben Sheets
In a post to his blog for 1050 ESPN Radio, Andrew Marchand wonders if the Mets should consider free-agent RHP Ben Sheets, who had elbow surgery in February.
Marchand says he spoke to Sheets’s agent, Casey 
Close, who a) would not indicate how Sheets is doing in his rehab, nor b) would he say where his client might sign as a free agent.
According to Marchand, “When he had his elbow surgery in February he was supposed to be out four-to-six months, which would mean he possibly could be ready next month.”
Last month, Jerry Crasnick wrote, for ESPN.com, that Sheets will be looking to sign with a team where he is guaranteed make 10 to 12 starts, which he can use as a springboard in to the off-season, free-agent market.
Marchand also blogs about Chien Ming Wang, and what the Yankees plan to do with top prospect Austin Jackson.
