Is it time to trade Sheets?

(Insert Bill Simmons's "Patrick Ewing Theory" here?) ... I have no love for Bill 'Blowhard' Simmons, but this thread is making me think of that theory...

The only way I'd trade Sheets is if we could get a guy like Philip Hughes back, someone who has top of rotation potential and will be cheap for a long time. That said, it's probably not going to happen.

 

If we can resign Sheets to a decent contract, I say do it. He is a top 10 pitcher when he's healthy, and his injuries have been in no way serious or damaging to his future. Yeah, it seems he gets dinged up a lot, but a few years ago we were talking about Cappy being injury prone, and he's managed to stay healthy over the last few years.

 

I seriously doubt that Sheets does not take his physical wellbeing seriously, especially when he has millions of dollars riding on it.

It is time for Ben Sheets to move on to a new team. He will likley become a very productive rest of a career. I think he is jinxed as a Brewer and will continue to steal money from this organization and its great fans. Ben Sheets has a ton of talent but I just dont being shown until he gets out of this town, so the team needs to trade him so they can get some kind of a return.
