I know it's still misplaced anger, but I don't really want the Brewers giving a penny to the chump who childishly threw baseballs into the dugout because he didn't want to be in Milwaukee. I don't care if he represented God. No way, no how.

Sheffield probably tells his clients to throw games if they don't like their contracts.

What is hard for me to believe is that any player would feel comfortable with GS representing him in contract negotiations?

 

I mean was Dennis Rodman not available?

Does Sheffield have a checkered past other than his time with the Brewers?

 

I have no memory of him acting like a jerk outside of his time with the Brewers, but I could be wrong.

 

Was it ever actually proven that he tanked in Milwaukee to get out of town?

Guess he won't be representing any of the Classies from St. Louis. How could Chris Carpenter explain that to his son?

He accused Joe Torre & others within the Yankees org. of being racists a few years back. So, there's that.

He demanded his way out of San Diego. He whined when he was with Detroit. Wasn't he shot when he was in Miami (while not his fault, I generally believe good people rarely wind up in these predicaments)? He generally complained about MLB clubs having conspiracies against him
