8 homers playing in the Philly bandbox...I guess they expect him to turn it on now that he's playing for the playoffs....he was awesome, will he regain the form of seasons past , we shall see.

He was good and now he is OK. At the same time I think he has like .500OBP which is pretty damn good if you ask me. I guess we all have to agree on one thing and that is that he definately wont hurt the Yanks lineup.

well, compared to Godzilla or Shefield I would say he's a downgrade. I guess he's at least a decent band-aid.

He's a good major league player but not quite a star. About the best you can ask for at this point if you're the Yanks

When is Sheffield due back?

I am glad to see him leave Philly. If I could put a film together of some of the games lost due to him not covering a fly ball, or not running down a ball that turns into a double. He got lucky with his no trade clause and to me fell asleep in the Phillies uniform. Yes he got on base, but he was supposed to be more than just an on base hitter. However, I am sure he will go the Yankees and be a stud for the remainder of the year as the curse of the Phillies continues. I still question as to why we did not kiss Rolen's ass to stay. Instead we got David Bell, oh boy.
