Meeting With New York Met Gary Sheffield

I recently had the pleasure to meet with New York Met, Gary Sheffield. "Sheff" is a nine-time All-Star and hit his 500th home run on April 17th to become the 25th player in major league history to reach the milestone.

We discussed my two of my favorite subjects --- God and fitness. I found him to be grounded in God and family (his wife DeLeon Richards Sheffield is a Gospel Artist) and he loves to work out, but a shoulder injury has limited his weight lifting program.

He had a career marred with some controversy and is a lifetime .294 hitter and should be a big help to the Mets this year because across the board, Sheffield is a very good teammate.
