    Padres' Gavin Sheets: Leaning against plantar fasciitis surgery

    San Diego Padres manager Craig Stammen said Wednesday that Gavin Sheets is leaning toward not having surgery to combat plantar fasciitis in his left foot, Marty Caswell of Foul Territory reports.Sheets missed about a month of action during the second half with his foot issue, though it's unclear when exactly it began bothering him. For now, Sheets is opting for rest rather than surgery, though it's possible he'll revisit the decision if the injury lingers. Sheets had a .748 OPS with 14 home runs in the first half but stumbled to a .580 OPS with only three long balls in the second half, and the foot problem might be partly to blame.

    Padres' Gavin Sheets: Could be limited to DH and PH upon return

    If Gavin Sheets (foot) is able to return this season, he may be limited to working as a designated hitter and/or pinch hitter, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.Sheets landed on the injured list Aug. 30 due to a left foot sprain. As of Sept. 8 he was still in a walking boot, and it's not certain that he'll be ready to rejoin San Diego before the end of the campaign. If Sheets does manage to make it back, he probably wouldn't be put in the field. Luis Campusano and Austin Hays have been getting most of the San Diego Padres' starts at DH of late, and Sheets could get occasional starts there while also serving as a bench bat.
