Newsbreakers

September 22, 2009

According to the New York Post, veteran outfielder Gary Sheffield has said he will return to play his final year of baseball in 2010. Sheffield has played in 97 games for the Mets this season, hitting .277 with 10 homers and 43 RBI.

Our View:

As with much of his career, his 2009 season has been full of drama. His production is down, and although he is still good enough to help a team next season, he may not be worth the headache he brings with him. If he comes back, someone will take a chance on him, but his days of fantasy relevance are over.

September 11, 2009

Gary Sheffield (back spasms) could return this weekend against the Phililes, according to the New York Post.

Our View:

Sheff hasn't played since August 28, and many thought he would not be returning this season. He felt fine during batting practice on Thursday, however, and wants to play this weekend. He's obviously not a fantasy consideration at this point, but if you've ever been a fan you may want to watch him play some these final weeks. He will turn 41 this November, and with all the drama he's had with the Mets these past few months, very few teams are likely to gamble and sign him this winter. This could be the end of a long and productive career.

September 7, 2009

The New York Daily News is reporting that Mets' outfielder Gary Sheffield is likely done for the year with a back injury. Sheffield is getting treatment on the back, but manager Jerry Manuel doesn't believe he will be ready to go before the season is out.

Our View:

Sheff was relegated to pinch-hitting duties, but apparently the back is bad enough that he can't even do that anymore. It has been a rocky last few weeks for Sheffield and the Mets, and it seems certain he won't be back with the team next season.

August 30, 2009

Gary Sheffield will serve in the role of pinch-hitter indefinitely after aggravating his lower-back injury again on Friday, according to the New York Post. Sheffield has been dealing with the injury since last Tuesday.

Our View:

Sheff will be coming off the bench for the rest of the season, although he could see a few starts here and there if his back improves. Don't expect him to do much over the last month of the season, and if you haven't done so already you should find another option.

August 25, 2009

Updating a previous report, Newsday's David Lennon is reporting on his Twitter page that Gary Sheffield left Tuesday's game with a cramp in his lower back.

Our View:

No word yet on how serious the injury is, but a cramp doesn't sound all that bad. We will let you know how long he is expected to be out, but don't be shocked if he misses some time.
