Gavin’s *Other* Dad: The Abreu Effect

There are a few simple facts you can find out about Gavin Sheets from a quick Google search.

He’s left-handed, born in Maryland, plays for the Chicago White Sox, has 11 home runs in just 170 plate appearances, and personally buys his own sheets at Bed Bath & Beyond. Oh, and his dad, Larry, played 748 games in the majors over an eight-year career and was himself quite a prodigious slugger.

It’s not at all surprising to see the latest model Sheets looking and acting like a longtime big leaguer, even though he’s just barely eclipsed the 50-game mark.
