Too early to tell is this is an “uh-oh” moment, or just another of the number of starts Sheets has left early this year due to various aches and pains.
Brewers right-hander Ben Sheets exited Wednesday’s game against the Cubs after two innings and 24 pitches with tightness in his right forearm.
Something appeared wrong with Sheets as he warmed up in the bottom of the second inning. After his allotment of warmup pitches, he stepped behind the mound, squatted for a moment and then threw twice over to third baseman Craig Counsell.
His first pitch to Aramis Ramirez was lined for a solo home run, but Sheets worked through the rest of the inning without further damage.

And would they offer him arbitration if he's hurt?
More cracks like that, and karma will reward you with Ned Yost being announced as the next Royals manager.
He's an ex-Braves guy, Dayton Moore is an ex-Braves guy...
