Mark Lelinwalla, of the New York Daily News, reports the New York Yankees could look into acquiring Milwaukee Brewers SP Ben Sheets during the offseason.

The Associated Press' R.B. Fallstrom reports Milwaukee Brewers SP Ben Sheets won his 12th game of the year Tuesday night, Aug. 26. He pitched six shutout innings, giving up just five hits and two walks while fanning four.

A very impressive rebound from Sheets, who was tagged by the Astros for five earned runs when he last took the hill. That blemish aside, the 30-year-old fireballer has been typically sharp this month, posting four quality starts in five turns while compiling a 25/8 K/BB ratio over 33 2/3 frames. Start him with confidence when he next toes the rubber, Sept. 1 at home against the Mets.

Ben Sheets tossed six shutout innings as the Brewers smothered the Cardinals 12-0 on Tuesday night. The Brewers separated themselves with three runs in the first five innings, then turned the game into a blowout with a nine-run ninth.

News: Milwaukee ace Ben Sheets improved to 12-7 on the season on Tuesday as he defeated the Cardinals. Sheets allowed zero runs on five hits over six innings. He walked two and had four strikeouts.

Analysis: Despite the blowout win over St. Louis, Sheets hasn't pitched out of the seventh inning in three starts and is just 1-2 in that span. He's still got the ability to be a No. 1 Fantasy SP, however, and since he pitches twice in Fantasy Week 23 (Sept. 1-7) he should be considered one. His next scheduled start comes Monday against the Mets and he finishes his week against the Padres

Reports from unnamed major league GMs indicate there are a long list of teams that will carry little-to-no interest in offering free-agent-pitchters-to-be CC Sabathia and Ben Sheets big-dollar contracts in free agency at season's end, according to the Boston Globe. "Sabathia's body scares me; he's almost 300 pounds," said the GM. "Sheets has put together a good season, but his history of injuries makes it tough to commit that kind of money to."It would seem someone will come up and offer the right kind of money, but it would not be a bad thing if the power men of this game stopped spending so unwisely and brought the market for arms down a bit. Only time will tell, but we find it hard to believe both players will not get paid.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Tom Haudricourt reports Milwaukee Brewers manager Ned Yost said he doesn't believe SP Ben Sheets is pressing to keep up with SP CC Sabathia's mastery. Sheets is 1-5 over his last eight starts with a 4.06 ERA. Yost referred to Sheets’ history of pitching better before the all-star break than after. In seven previous seasons with the Brewers, he went 46-40 with a 3.61 ERA in 108 starts before the break and 27-34 with a 4.12 ERA in 82 starts afterward.

Sheets dropped to 11-7, and sports a 3.16 ERA, a 1.14 WHIP and a 140/38 K/BB ratio in 168 innings over 25 starts this season. His next scheduled outing is Aug. 26 at St. Louis.

The Astros pulled the 5-2 win over Ben Sheets and the Milwaukee Brewers this evening, an effort led by shortstop Geoff Blum. Blum went 1-for-3 at the dish, hitting his 12th home run of the season to total three RBIs and one runs scored on the night.Blum hit just .196 last month but totaled four homers with 11 RBIs. Thus far in August he touts an improved average, .263, with three homers and 11 RBIs, and we still have a couple of weeks to go.

Sheets pitched six innings, allowing five runs (all earned) on five hits with one walk and seven strikeouts.Sheets moves to 11-7 on the season with an ERA of 3.16. He has gone 1-3 in August thus far despite allowing just 10 earned runs over four starts with five walks and 21 strikeouts.

Astros manager Cecil Cooper went heavy on the left-handed hitters to face Brewers co-ace Ben Sheets and found that to be a perfect opportunity to give his shortstop Miguel Tejada a rest, according to MLB.com.Cooper played Darin Erstad in left, Michael Bourn in center and Geoff Blum at shortstop. David Newhan started at second, while the red-hot Ty Wigginton moved back to his normal position at third after playing more than a week in left field.

MLB.com reports Milwaukee Brewers SP Ben Sheets (11-6, 3.00 ERA) will start Tuesday, Aug. 19, against the Houston Astros.

Ty Wigginton has had a superb August, and he could continue that Tuesday when he and the Astros go up against Milwaukee hurler Ben Sheets. In 28 career at-bats against Sheets, Wigginton is hitting .429 with two home runs and seven RBI.Wigginton has been on fire in August, and won the NL Player of the Week award last week. He is hitting .473 with six home runs and an absurd .927 slugging percentage. Needless to say, he's someone that should be on fantasy teams in all formats.

Houston pitcher Roy Oswalt and Milwaukee hurler Ben Sheets are close friends, and Oswalt has been on a bit of a recruiting pitch, trying to get Sheets to consider the Astros when he becomes a free agent in the offseason, according to the Houston Chronicle.Sheets and Oswalt would make a potent combo in Houston, but it is likely Sheets' destination will have a lot more to do with the money offered than where his friends are.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports Milwaukee Brewers manager Ned Yost is considering a move to put SP CC Sabathia and SP Ben Sheets on a five-day rotation instead of pitching them as their turn in the rotation comes up.

The Nationals failed to produce any semblance of productivity at the plate this evening, posting just five total hits in the 6-0 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. The Brewers owe it all to starter Ben Sheets , going the complete game to earn his 11th win of the season, failing to walk a single batter and striking out six.Sheets moves to 11-5 on the season with a 2.95 ERA. He had suffered three losses over his last five starts coming in, leading to worries that his arm may be suffering from fatigue. Tonight Sheets was on point, pitching his fourth complete game of the season.

A truly phenomenal effort from Sheets, who threw 78 of his 113 pitches for strikes en route to his second straight quality start. After posting a somewhat underwhelming 4.34 ERA in July, the hard-throwing righty has clearly returned to form, compiling a 1.20 mark over his first 15 frames this month. Start him with confidence when he next takes the hill, Aug. 14 against the Padres at pitcher-friendly PETCO Park.

Brewers pitcher Ben Sheets has struggled recently, and some scouts believe he will continue to do so because of how many innings he has accumulated this year, according to MLB.com.This is certainly something for fantasy owners to consider down the stretch. He has yet to win a game since starting the All-Star Game, and his ERA is 4.63 during that period.

Updating a previous report, Jon Cooper, of MLB.com, reports Milwaukee Brewers SP Ben Sheets lost to the Atlanta Braves Sunday, Aug. 3, for the first time since August of 2004.

Milwaukee Brewers SP Ben Sheets allowed three runs (two earned) on six hits over six innings Sunday, Aug. 3, against the Atlanta Braves, according to The Associated Press. He walked three and struck out four, falling to 10-5 on the season.

Sheets gave up only two earned runs but fell to 1-4 in seven starts since a dominant 4-1 complete-game victory in Atlanta on June 24.

Analysis: Sheets hasn't won in over a month, which has to be frustrating his thousands of Fantasy owners who drafted him very high this past offseason. However, it hasn't been all his fault, as he has only allowed more than two earned runs twice in his last six outings. In Fantasy Week 19 (Aug. 4-10), Sheets will get one start on Saturday vs. the Nationals. He remains a must-start SP in all Fantasy formats

A tough-luck loss for Sheets, who has now gone five straight starts without a win. Still, Sunday proved to be a nice bounce-back performance, considering he was tagged for six earned runs on 11 hits over 5 1/3 innings in a loss to the Cubs last time out. The 30-year-old ace will take his 3.14 ERA to Miller Park for a date with the Nationals next.
