“It’s a sad story.” The fall and fall of Lenny Dykstra

July 20, 2011

Harvey Araton published this piece on “Nails” in today’s New York Times.

One of the failed projects the ex-ballplayer was working on was The Player’s Club,  a magazine designed specifically for recently retired athletes. Suffice it to say that it never really got off the ground. I’m almost willing to bet that Dykstra has AADD.

Like several of his teammates, Dykstra took advantage of his 1986 Mets status to publish a book:  Nails: The Inside Story of an Amazin’ Season, with Marty Noble, came out 1987.
