Gary Sheffield Guys Quotations

My season is when I get paid. I'm not sacrificing my body or taking a chance on injury for something that is made up. A lot of guys feel that way. They won't say it, but I will.

Just like all these guys feel comfortable here, I want to feel comfortable, too. Why do I always have to have my back against the wall and have to prove something to everybody? You get tired of it. After a while, it becomes -- .

This team's resilient, ... We don't quit. Guys in here have battled back from injuries, the pitching staff's a little bit banged up. Now, we're starting to come into our own.

Everybody knows good pitching stops good hitting. Our guys are pitching great.

I know these guys are out of it and trying to be spoilers. I was just trying to get the team as fired up as you can. When a team is out of it, you try to take the wind out of them. But they showed their resiliency.

I like to make a difference in both places, ... We are a stronger team if I am on the field. I would like to let the guys who are used to be the DH, be the DH.
