I disagree on Sheff. He's too great an extra base hitter to hit "no doubters." You definitely know when the Sheff cooks a pitch but you don't really know if it'll be off the wall or out.

That's not disagreeing; you are agreeing with AT on Sheffield there

I did pick a poor person to quote, but AT did say that [he's say Sheffield], whereas I wouldn't.

He said that predicated on the same thing you were saying: that you never know if its just going to crush the wall or go over it.

He that he'd say Sheffield. I wouldn't even think of picking Sheffield. Check the first words "I'd say Sheffield but..."
I wouldn't even consider Sheffield with those ropes that he hits.
