Detroit slugger Gary Sheffield is unhappy with his playing time and has express his desire to play every day, according to ESPN.com. "I can be in the outfield and play every day. I don't want to DH," Sheffield told the Boston Globe. "I don't feel like a baseball player when I DH. I don't know how to be the leader that I am from the bench. I can't be a vocal leader. I can't talk to guys from the bench because I don't feel right about it." Leyland claims that he's "flabbergasted" by Sheffield's comments because shoulder injuries have limited his playing time. "I told him that all I had here for him was a DH. If he did not want to accept that, do not accept the trade," Leyland recalled of the 2006 trade between the Yankees and Tigers. "I'm still confused by the article because it talks about 'platoon doesn't set well.' Gary Sheffield never platooned here."
