Maybe in September, but for right now I think CV needs to work on his
game as a starter. If/when Ohka leaves in free agency after the
season, they will need a right-hander to fill in the rotation. CV
might be that guy. But right now he needs to refine his skills at
AAA and continue to develop so that he can be part of the MLB
rotation, perhaps as soon as next year. Bringing him up now might
retard that development. Perhaps in September, when the rosters
expand, he can get some work out of the Brewers pen.

Hopefully. But I am concerned. Ohka is a "pitcher" -- he works
offspeed and moves his fastball around. Sheets lives and dies on
power, and that is something that he might not have (or have less of)
following his various injuries over the past year. I am skeptical
about how effectively he will return, but I am anxious to see.
