Sheets has surgery on right elbow
Former Brewers ace expects to be ready after All-Star break

Right-hander Ben Sheets, whose free-agent market dried up due to health concerns, had surgery on his pitching elbow on Tuesday, according to a FOXSports.com report.
Dr. James Andrews performed the successful surgery in Birmingham, Ala., repairing a partial tear in the pitcher's flexor tendon. The surgery is identical to the one Andrews performed on left-hander Andy Pettitte in 2004. Pettitte has logged 200-plus innings in every season since.

Sheets said that he is targeting his comeback for after the All-Star break and should be able to adhere to that timetable if he doesn't suffer any rehab setbacks.

At last count, it is estimated that the 2009 NY Yankees team salary will significantly exceed the GDP of at least 9 separate countries.

So does this cost him a two-year deal? What does he do now sign a one-year deal?

Yep, he had the two year deal in the works but it was taken away. He will have to set up some sort of incentive-based deal somewhere.
