Bleus sign Sheets

The winless Montreal Bleus make a move to improve their pitching staff. 35 year old Free Agent Ben Sheets will replace Noah Lowery as the 4th starter. Sheets is a 6 point pitcher, but he will get as many starts as a first starter.

Sheets will wear the number 36. When asked why, Sheets said "I've worn 15, 21, and 28 in my career. Those were taken. I looked at number 51, but I respect Lowery and won't take his. I added 15 and 21 together to get 36." Sheets will fly to Montreal and start the next game against the Roughnecks.

As far as Lowery, he will be released. He may be signed as a RP at the end of the season, but he does not have a job as of now.
