2017 Arizona Diamondbacks Review: # 16, Jimmy Sherfy

“Jimmy Sherfy isn't built nor look like your typical closer. He's barely 6-0 (and more like 5-10) and is thin at 170 pounds. He has long, flowing blond hair. He has a funky herky, jerky delivery that hardly fits any classic mechanical profiles.” John Baragona, July 24, 2013

Jimmy Sherfy’s 2016 season was a bump in the road. In July of 2016, he was promoted to AAA Reno. The first month was good. After that a problem emerged – he allowed 4 homers in 11.2 innings (and 15 earned runs). The good news is that he stuck with his routine.
