He's playing for a very pathetic team right now. Another team, in contention, tried to trade for him and the Mets pulled him off waivers. Then thinking that the Mets obviously want to keep him, Sheffield asked for an extension because, hey, if they didn't want to keep him they could have dumped him for cash. Then they say no dice, we don't want you next year and he gets upset because they could have dealt him to a team that is playing in meaningful games. Yeah, he's a schmuck.
