"Eleven years ago this month, Ben Sheets was a phenom. A first-round pick for the Brewers, he'd made it to the big leagues in less than two years. Went 10-5 with a 3.69 ERA in his first 16 major league starts, at the height of the steroids era. Made the All-Star game as a rookie. At 6-foot-1, 220 pounds, he was a specimen, with the kind of sturdy build that suggested plenty of 220-inning seasons and All-Star Games to come."
