[edit] Biographical Information
Dennis Sherrill was a first-round pick out of high school who came to the majors for a couple brief cups of coffee in 1978 and 1980. Drafted as a shortstop, he was not much of a minor league hitter from 1974-80, with his best season by far in 1978 when he hit .292 with 14 home runs in Double A ball.
The New York Yankees won 100+ games during each of the years when Sherrill came up. Bucky Dent was the regular shortstop at the time.
