I'M GETTING TOO OLD FOR THIS SHEETS

Ok, this is getting bad.  Really bad.  Ben Sheets didn't get anybody out yesterday against the Reds, getting pulled after allowing eight hits and a walk and all nine baserunners to score (plus a guy who had reached on an error - Sheets' own error of course).  Curtis Dickerson finished off Bennie's day with a two-run homer.  That was positively Noah Lowry-like in it's disastrousness, and we know where Lowry is now, panhandling for any LOOGY job he can get.  And Sheets isn't even left-handed!  It may be time for Ben to take his $10 million guaranteed from the A's and go start a fine bedding business.  Sheets by Sheets.  Sounds like a winner to me.

In other calamities, Mark Buehrle got cuffed around by the freakin' Royals of all teams for nine hits and three runs in four innings.  Miguel Cabrera finally did something positive, smacking a homer off Mark, uh, I'm not even going to try to spell that name.  You know, that Polish guy from the Blue Jays.  That guy must be murder on the clubhouse people in Toronto.  Chris Snyder had a couple of hits, and managed to get thrown at his head by Cliff Lee, who was promptly ejected after the requisite bench-clearing ballet (this is only the Cactus League, after all).  Apparently, Lee took issue with Snyder running into him on a play at the plate in the first inning that Lee was backing up.  You go, Chris!  Disabling the other teams' guys is our only hope.

I'm waiting for the final post-draft roster spreadsheet to be issued to do any more team evaluations.  We still have one guy who hasn't made his 10th round pick.  I'll trade you Ben Sheets for it!
