I'm sure this has been discussed elsewhere, but would it make any sense to make a run at Sheets, assuming his price tag comes down due to a lack of other interested teams? I know he is an injury waiting to happen, but doesn't seem like we would need to go even 4 years for a contract, and if there is any team equipped to deal with an injury to a starter, it would be the Cubs.
Put another way, if we sign him, we would assume his arm would explode, but if the Cards sign him we would assume Cy Young, right?

I wish that I believed in Fate. I wish I didn't sleep so late. I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders.
