Emmet Sheehan Continues Rotation Bid After Flu Sidelining

Emmet Sheehan is working to regain his form after being sidelined by the flu. In his latest outing against the Rangers, he pitched 3 2/3 innings and threw 66 pitches, marking his longest appearance of the spring. While he allowed a two-run home run in the third inning, the outing was a step forward in his rotation competition. He currently has six strikeouts and six walks across 38 batters faced this spring.
