Update: Mets sign Sheffield

The New York Daily News reported today that the Mets may be interested in veteran slugger Gary Sheffield.

Meanwhile, Sheffield's agent, Rufus Williams, told Todd Zolecki that Sheffield hasn't ruled out the Phillies but he wants playing time.

Update: The Mets got it done and inked Sheffield Friday afternoon.

"Gary gives us another element in the lineup and he gives us a different intensity, just because of the competitive guy that he is," Mets GM Omar Minaya said.
