There is no other ending possible out of all of this for Lenny except a very bad one.

It is extremely hard for anyone to have sympathy for Lenny after reading about some of the things he is accused of doing, the worst one being using his mother’s credit card for $13K in jet fuel and then not paying her back.

The obvious predicted outcome finds Lenny completely broke (already happened) and in prison for fraud.

When I think of Lenny (besides his great play), I think of his mouth and the front of his jersey – full of tobacco juice and his body full of steroids. He went from a small fast man into a hulk over one winter and, after having some mild success, ruined his body. Oh yeah, just before he ruined his body he signed a four year 25 million dollar contract and, due to his probably steroid related injuries (bad back) he had just 388 at bats over the four years!

That’s cheating and stealing.

So I have little sympathy for Nails.

Injuries plagued Dykstra for the rest of his career. He last played in the 1996 season, and launched one final comeback attempt in Spring Training in 1998 before retiring at the age of 35. Since his retirement, Dykstra has run a car wash in Corona, California.

Dykstra was sued in relation to the car wash in 2005. The lawsuit, filed by former business partner Lindsay Jones, alleged that Dykstra used steroids and told Jones to place bets on Phillies games in 1993, when Dykstra was on the team. Dykstra denied the allegations. Dykstra was also identified by others as using steroids during his career.

Lenny’s brothers have both accused him of fraud. One, a former business partner in California car washes claims he was owed $4 million, or 10% of the value when sold.

He has also been accused of using other people’s credit cards to pay for his jet fuel and then not paying them back for it. Former employees of Dykstra including pilots say they were asked to pay for jet fuel with their own credit cards.

It was reported that he even defrauded his own mother out of $13,000, when he called her up crying and begging her to use her credit card to pay for jet fuel.

Dykstra was named in the Mitchell Report on steroid use in Major League Baseball on December 13, 2007. The report cited multiple sources, including Kirk Radomski, stating that Dykstra used anabolic steroids during his MLB career.

In early 2009, however, stories and evidence began to emerge that indicated Dykstra’s financial empire was in a tailspin. A GQ article by Kevin Coughlin, a former photo editor for the New York Post, detailed Coughlin’s 67-day employment with Dykstra producing The Players Club, a magazine geared toward athletes and their expensive lifestyles. It portrayed Dykstra in an unflattering light, as Coughlin detailed incidents accusing Dykstra of credit card fraud, failure to pay rent on the magazine’s Park Avenue offices, bounced checks, lawsuits, and Dykstra’s refusal to pay printing costs.

An ESPN.com investigation in April 2009 went into greater detail, noting Dykstra has been the subject of at least two dozen legal actions since 2007.

In 1999, he was arrested for sexual harassment of a 17 year-old female that worked at his car wash, but the charges were later dropped.

In March 2009, it was alleged that Dykstra’s businesses were facing financial ruin and that he had used offensive terms when speaking about blacks, women, and gays.

Lenny’s wife Terri Dykstra filed for divorce in April, 2009.

He now lives out of his car.

If that’s not unravelling, I don’t know what is.

Lenny Dykstra went to the World Series with the Mets in 1986 and the Phillies in 1993 …. your statement that ” …. Dykstra would later be traded to the Phillies, who he later helped reach the World Series two more times …” is factually incorrect.

Further, ho did it all fall apart for Dykstra after the 1991 car accident? It certainly didn’t in baseball terms since he hit .297 in 1991 prior to the accident and then .301 in 1992 and .305 in 1993. In baseball terms, he really did crash and burn there, didn’t he.

You really should remove this trash …. it’s embarrassing for you.
