Sheets to start for Brewers tonight

August 29, 2007 By WRN Contributor

Ben Sheets returns from the disabled list for the Milwaukee Brewers to start tonight's game 2 of their series against the Chicago Cubs in Chicago. 

Sheets hasn't pitched since mid-july because of a finger injury on his throwing hand. 

Sheets played catch in the outfield before the series opener last night, a 5-3 Brewers loss to the Cubs. 

The Brewer starters have an ERa of 5.55 and Sheets is hoping to help turn the momentum back in the Brewers favor.  Milwaukee has lost 5-straight games to fall 2 1/2 games behind the first place Cubs and a half-game behind second place St. Louis. 

Sheets will fill the roster spot vacated by right-handed pitcher Claudio Vargas, who was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a lower back strain.
