Tigers cut Sheffield

This is unexpected. The Detroit Tigers released slugger/asshole Gary Sheffield.

LAKELAND, Fla. -- Gary Sheffield didn't make the team.

Not since his Major League career began, in 1988, has he had to ponder that. But given his unparalleled ability to make news over his career, it was fitting that he was the one left to deliver it.

"I just got released," Sheffield said.

Good riddance to bad rubbish. Smart move by the Tigers. He's terrible now. Joe Morgan is probably crying somewhere.

I hope he gets hit by a bus and flung into a volcano.

I second ESK's opinion.

@Paul isn't anything that makes Joe Morgan cry a good thing ;)
