Sheffield pulls no punches about former agent


Gary Sheffield is known for being outspoken, so when he was asked about his former agent Scott Boras, that outspoken nature continued.


Because of the grievance between the two, stemming from Sheffield's 3-year deal with the Yankees in 2003, has not yet been settled, Sheffield wouldn't talk about specifics but that didn't mean he wouldn't take his shots at Boras.


“It ain’t going to be pretty,” he said. “No fine is going to be big enough. No suspension is going to be long enough.”


“Nothing happens. Then, he comes back, `I want some more money.’ That’s basically the way he’s acting,” Sheffield said. “I don’t know why. It’s probably personal with him. But when it’s done, it’s going to be personal with me.”
