Default NOMAR gotta play 3rd base

Loney just too good(to not have in the game.)NOMAR HASN'T HAD POWER THIS YEAR.That freak called Bettameat actually hit one out right-handed(4TH HR THIS YEAR AS A PINCH HITTER.)He will get traded(they keep asking for him in trades.)Pretty much only hits mistakes.At this point,the best thing about Nomar is that he likes playing in a Dodger Uni.

All 3B have failed, so why not try it. Betemit just proves that he's only a good Utility player and thats it.

"The Dodgers will make Nomar Garciaparra their starting third baseman, effective Friday.

The move opens up first base for James Loney, turn Wilson Betemit back into a reserve and probably result in Tony Abreu eventually making his way back to Triple-A, if only until Nomar gets hurt Saturday or Sunday. The Dodgers are making the switch because they're not getting enough offense out of third base. Of course, that ignores the fact that Betemit has 80 points of OPS on Nomar. Betemit even has a better OPS than Loney did in Triple-A. We're pleased to see Loney getting additional playing time, but this isn't the answer, not unless Nomar suddenly turns it around."

Pretty obvious that the answer is they gotta get Loney in the line-up full time(until he retires...period.) All eyes are on him,and still he almost hits for the cycle.Nomar struggling mightily at the plate(an ugly sight to see.)He came up empty in 2 huge situations Tuesday night,but Abreu saved d bacon.That Friday schedule(for Nomar at 3rd base) quickly turned into a Tuesday.The team is getting very little from highly-paid players named,Nomar,Kent,Pierre,and Schmidt.However,highly paid pitchers named Penney,and Lowe have earned their money.Furcal has played hurt most of the season.That f'n fool Depodesta should have just paid Beltre his money,and we would have had our 3rd baseman.No,he would rather pay Drew and Kent 20 mil/year than to keep a quality 3rd baseman who loves hittin' at Dodger Stadium(and to this day is loved by Dodger fans.)Wouldn't surprise me if some terminal cancer patient steps up and takes out Depodesta.How many has Beltre hit this year(atleast 10.)He would be hittin 13-15 for us already this year(if he was hittin' at Dodger Stadium.)This would have been his big year(3rd year into contract.)We would be runnin' away with this division.
