Sheehan was a part of the best minor league starting rotation before his departure to the Los Angeles Dodgers on June 16. To that point, Tulsa starting pitchers had posted a minor league-best 2.83 staff ERA, with Sheehan earning a 4-1 record, and a 1.86 ERA. At the time of his promotion, he had the second most strikeouts in Double-A with 88 in 53.1 innings.
Sheehan was transferred from Tulsa to the Dodgers on June 16 when he made his major league debut by pitching six hitless innings against the San Francisco Giants.
