I'm not exactly sure why there has been a pour out of Sheffield threads lately, but the guy is kind of fascinating in the way he plays so I guess it is somewhat justified. And also, take in to account the Tigers' success.
I will say this, he has to be the one hitter that I wonder if his bat meets regulation. Every time I see him AB. He's not huge by any means, he's skinny but incredibly cut.
But that bat, it seems so long. And the way Shef twirls it around before he swings. I'll just never get over it, amazes me everytime.
16 SB at 38. That is just remarkable. He's got a crap attitude, but the guy was born to play baseball.
