Jeff Sheaffer

Jeff Scheaffer played baseball for close to 15 years. He was drafted by Baltimore in the 12th round of the 1981 amateur draft. He got his started in Baltimore's minor league system,as a Second Baseman. He only advanced as far as triple a with Baltimore. He never made the major leagues until 1989, when he played for the Chicago White Sox. The next year, he found himself playing for the Seattle Mariners. Scheaffer's Odyssey saw his rights drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers from Baltimore in 1986. Ironically, he only played briefly in the farm system of the Cleveland Indians. The Dodgers sold his contract to the Angels later that year. Sheaffer never saw the light of day with the Angels, being released shortly before spring training. AFter his brief stint in Seattle, he returned to Baltimore, only to be released yet again. Oakland signed the utility infielder, and he appeared in a mere 8 games in 1994. Scheaffer quietly retired from baseball after being released by Oakland at the end of the 1994 season.
