Post #2: Chef saga continues
I realize how long the previous post is, just bare with me I'm a beginner here! Anyways, my friend Robert Glass IM-ed me the following article: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2639001 and I feel so strongly about it I just had to follow up on the previous post I made.
After the Yankees got Abreu in the middle of the season, Sheffield, the biggest phony, low life, club house cancer in sports who's initials aren't T.O., lied to everyone and said that for the sake of the team he will gladly move to 1B. There is no direct quote to the media because it's only sources who said he said it to Torre but here's the closest I can come to one, it's from http://www.contracostatimes.com/mld/cctimes/sports/columnists/rick_hurd/15211849.htm ("around the horn" section)
Gary Sheffield, on the disabled list since June 13 after surgery to repair a tendon and ligament in his left wrist, greeted newly acquired outfielder Bobby Abreu with a hug, then said it was futile for the media to anticipate his reaction to a trade that essentially leaves him without an outfield spot. Said Sheffield: "Y'all think you know what I'm going to do. ... Nobody knows. That's the mystique of me."
Sheffield may be on his best behavior because his $13 million option for 2007 hasn't been picked up, and there's not a huge market for 37-year-old outfielders seeking that kind of cash.
Sheffield told manager Joe Torre he'd be willing to play first base or DH when he returns from the DL, and he's already working with hitting coach Don Mattingly -- a pretty good first baseman in his day -- on footwork drills.
P-H-O-N-Why? You will soon see.
Not looking for credit here, but at the time I just called it a ploy to make himself look good entering the free agent market. I don't consider myself a genius for making such a bold prediction, it's rather obvious for anyone who has witnessed this retard's antics.
Back to reality (oh there goes gravity,) suddenly, when news came out that the Yankees were not going to allow him to test the free agent market and instead would pick up his option, the scumbag who once said “ you might as well not bother trading for me, cause you're gonna have a very unhappy player. You gonna inconvenience me, I'm gonna inconvenience every situation there .” (I got that quote from here: http://www.contentmart.com/ContentMart/content.asp?LinkID=28291&CatID=173&content=1 which was actually just a reference from an article about one of his many "misquoted" mishaps he's had as a Yankee), the loser who once purposely dropped fly balls as an outfielder in Milwalkee and desecrated the Dodger clubhouse with his constant whining and unhappiness (I mean after all why should someone making upwards of 10 million dollars a year to play a boy's game for a living be happy? ), suddenly this jackass comes out and says (quotes from article from first link in this post):
"This will not work, this will not work at all," Sheffield told the newspaper. "I don't want to play first base a year for them. I will not do that."
and
"I don't know what they're [Yankees] going to do," Sheffield said. "Maybe they picked it up just to trade me. If they do that, if I just [go] to a team for one year, there's going to be a problem."
I will not entertain for 1 second, except to write this line, that Cashman seriously considers Sheffield a viable first base option.
Leave it to this buttpipe to do his best to sabotage Cashman's obvious plan of trading him by anouncing that he will be unhappy (and we all know what that means) with his new team. Great, just great. Thank you for ruining by Thursday morning , you overpaid, overrated cancer.
Did you know? There are only 2 members of the 300 (HR) 300 (SB) 100 (3B) club: Willie Mays and -brace yourself- Steve Finley. The other 4 members of the 300 (HR) 300 (SB) club are Barry Bonds, Bobby Bonds, Andre Dawson and Reggie Sanders. Andre Dawson just missed the aforemention 300-300-100 club (98 triples).
