With the recent signing of Oliver Perez all the clamor among Mets fans has been about how the team hasn't changed since last year. Many fans (myself included) were calling for Ben Sheets to be the guy to fill out the Mets rotation.
Well, it turns out Omar Minaya knew something the fans didn't (as usual).
It was reported by MLB.com that Sheets will most likely need surgery to repair a torn flexor tendon in his right elbow.
The Rangers and Sheets were apparently very close on a two-year deal but a physical stopped the deal when the torn tendon was revealed. The Brewers will likely have to pay for Sheets to have the surgery since he was employed by them when he was injured.
Sheets is still on the open market, so a team could possibly sign him to a two-year deal and allow him to rehab.
