With the All-Star and the Futures Game both in the rear view mirror, we take another tour around the minors to see who is hot and who is not.

Ben Sheets (RHP, ATL) reportedly will make his first MLB appearance in two years on July 15, likely replacing one of ATL's inconsistent young starters, Randall Delgado (RHP, ATL) or Mike Minor (LHP, ATL).
