Injury Report
Shoulder - 15-day DL. Out until at least late July (Updated - 7/5/08)
Fantasy Analysis
The right-handed Benoit is 3-2 with a 5.60 ERA and one save in 34 games. The move is retroactive to July 3. He is nothing more than a middle reliever for the deepest of leagues that use true middle men, when healthy, though he is one of the favorites for saves if something happens to closer C.J. Wilson.
