“Who the hell is talking about platooning? Gary Sheffield hasn’t been platooned here. Platooning is when you have a left-handed hitter and a right-handed hitter. One plays against a right-handed pitcher, the other plays against a left-handed pitcher. That is a platoon, to make it perfectly clear.”
Jim Leyland, in a pretty funny Detroit News article in response to Sheffield bitching about his playing time. Personally, I think Leyland rests guys too much with the exception of Sheffield who I think plays too much.
