    Considering he has $14 million on his contract for next year and can also essentially only play left field - no.

    Went to a game against the Braves once. Sheffield was playing right field. Some dude shouted many, many things to heckle him from the rows below where I was. Some of the ones I remember:
    "Hey, GARY! I got some money! Wanna come play for my team?"
    "Yo, GARY! Who [sic] you gonna play for next season???"

    :D

    So... no, I don't think so. Journeyman... turned DH? No thanks.

    It would not surprise me if they signed Shannon Stewart who was recently released.

    NO, they should get Bonds instead.
