From FOX Sports.com’s Ken Rosenthal comes word that the Braves have agreed to a minor league contract with veteran right-hander Ben Sheets.
Sheets hasn’t appeared in a major league game since July 9, 2010, when he was a member of the A’s. And he underwent Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery a little under two years ago… Sheets owns a 3.79 career ERA and 1.22 career WHIP.

1. Esoteric throws a 'hard slider' Posted: July 01, 2012 at 04:14 PM (#4170752)Ben Sheets doesn't exactly speak English, either. I wonder if he still speaks fluent Yellow Hammer, though.
One studio almost in the past 8 years will do that.
If you're talking about Tom Waits the number is three including one triple album.
Yep. It wasn't until I saw the headline that I wondered whatever happened to that guy. I don't think I knew it had been 2 years since he appeared in the majors, and I definitely didn't remember that he played with the A's.
He disappeared like Brandon Webb did - 3.5 seasons since his last appearance, and I see he only threw 4 games in the minors in that time. Is he completely retired?
