Nomar and the All Overpaid Team

DODGER UPDATE: 6.20.08

OK...so here we go again...

Nomar Garciaparra left his minor league rehabilitation assignment in Las Vegas and traveled to Boston to visit a physical therapist he knows from his days playing with the Red Sox.

He was a game-time scratch from the lineup in Triple-A Las Vegas' game on Wednesday after he felt discomfort that morning, but he's expected to return to the lineup Friday to continue his rehab assignment.

So please allow me to announce this first, right here, right now. NOMAR IS DONE! let's take a guess at how many games he plays for the Dodgers this year!...So far he's had only 31 at-bats this season and more setbacks in rehab than Lindsay Lohan.

Which clearly puts him right at the top of the Dodgers growing list of busts who are offering little to no help to this once proud franchise.

Yahoo Sports came out with a great article yesterday about the ALL OVERPAID TEAM for 2008: http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news;_ylt=Avo44OsN41ViT4g3Gx23ELsRvLYF?slug=jp-overunder061808&prov=yhoo&type=lgns

AND 4 of our lovely LA Dodgers made it...Can you guess which ones? I'll give you some hints:
1) This grouchy but future Hall of Famer has had a fight with a teammate once a year, every year of his career.
2) His sneezes can put him on the DL.
3) He has a wart on his knee and he can't even hit his weight, but if he could he'd at least be close to batting .300
4) This former Giant has the same chances of pitching this season for the Dodgers as you or I do.

SO...All of us Dodger fans better ENJOY that 3 game winning streak because Cleveland is coming to town and you can bet that between the day game yesterday and today's night game, Matt Kemp will forget how to lay off those low and away pitches he usually strikes out on 3 times a game!
