Sheets figures to start Opening Day
The Official Site of The Milwaukee Brewers: News: Sheets figures to start Opening Day
PHOENIX -- Brewers manager Ned Yost has absolutely zero patience for those trying to figure out his pitching rotation. But at least for Opening Day, all you have to do is count the days on the calendar.
Ben Sheets is the easy choice for that assignment, given his experience in that role, and is on pace to start his sixth season opener in the last seven years. He tossed three more scoreless innings in Thursday's loss to the Mariners, and an every-five-day schedule lines him up to pitch on March 31, when the Brewers begin the regular season against the Cubs at Wrigley Field.
If he gets the nod, Sheets would welcome it.
