News: Gary Sheffield is a Free Agent
The Tigers released OF Gary Sheffield, according to the Detroit News.
WFAN’s Evan Roberts just said he and co-host Joe Benigno will soon discuss whether the Mets should go after Sheffield.
…now, why on earth would that make sense, and 
where in the world would he play… i think this is a terrible, and dangerous idea… i mean, he’s not going to start, and so can you imagine his personality as a bench player in New York City… wow…
Sheffield hit .225 with a 19 HR in 114 games for the Tigers last season, and hit .265 with a .378 OBP and 25 HR in 133 games in 2007.
He played in just 39 games in his final season with the Yankees in 2006, while struggling with a variety of injuries.
…please, let him go play in some obscure, non-contending town, where he can hit one more home run to reach 500, all while making a few bucks, waving to the fans, and fighting with that city’s only beat reporter… and keep him as a far away from Citi Field as you can…
