Big mouth, big bat

Gary Sheffield’s mouth is getting more publicity than his bat right now, which is saying a lot considering how hot his bat’s been. Since the famed Daniel Cabrera plunking on April 30, Sheff has batted .323 with 14 HR and 32 RBI. He’s got a .418 OBA and .685 SLG during that span.

Only Prince Fielder has put up better numbers since April 30. Fielder, who looks very much like Big Daddy, is .328-16-34. Victor Martinez also has 34 RBI during the time frame, to go with 10 HR and .326 BA.

No. 3 on the list of HR since April 30 is Ken Griffey Jr., with 11.

Magglio Ordonez is .385-9-30 during the span.
