I used to like Dykstra when he played. Sadly, we now know that Dykstra is a total scumbag on so many levels. Let him rot in jail. I have no pity for this guy.

Let this be a lesson to Americans. If you defraud a bank, then you will go down and do hard time. If, however, you are a bank and you defraud the entire nation, then absolutely nothing will happen to you and you will even get a bonus. Banks are the new feudal masters. How long until they invoke the right of first night?

You should have bought in 2000 and 2001 when I did.

Thank you! Never followed Lenny so didn’t know. Hope he makes it so he can support his dad.

Reflex, you just keep believing government lies.

Cutter is 23 and playing in low A ball. His prospect days have come and gone. Best he can probably hope for at this point is a cup of coffe at the MLB level.

@hardjudge – Cutter is Lenny’s son and plays for the Nats Low A affiliate in hagerstown, MD.

Gold, silver and land would be good investments IF you know what you are doing.

While you may have something with land given its current depressed value, precious metals are at multi-decade highs right now. Investing in those would be incredibly foolish as they will inevitably crash.

Also, inflation is almost negligible right now, while some prices have gone up in food, its more than countered by huge drops in prices elsewhere(which in fact is concerning economists). Cost of living has gone down on average over the past few years even if some specific items have gone up.

for the ignorant, who’s Poor Cutter?

Well put it in something, like gold or silver or land. With the current inflation rate at about 100 %(if you’ve been to the grocery store lately you’ll understand) CDs will be worthless shortly.

Poor Cutter. Everytime a reporter or talk show host calls he wants to believe they are calling to talk about his career. And it always starts out that way until a backdoor slider question like "does your Dad offer you advice and support?" always slips in for a strike. . . . although he may have gotten himself on the mid-level prospect track as a middle infielder with his season at Hagerstown this year. .293, 18 Dbl, 44 R, 44 RBI, 25 SB, .774 OPS

“stealing or destroying furnishings, baseball memorabilia and other property from his $18.5 million mansion.”

This is why I have no sympathy for star athletes who end up broke. Most of them have no business sense (cough, cough…Curt Schilling…cough, cough), yet they think just because they were great ballplayers that they are experts in every other field of life. Just put your money in CDs and live sensibly, you morons, and then you won’t end up broke, bankrupt and maybe in prison.

Okay, here’s rooting for a 51 month sentence with a $200k fine since he can’t appeal that and spend more taxpayer money. I would then like an order that all 3 sentences be served consecutively and fully. See you in 8 years, Lenny.

That is an avalanche !!! Could he be any worse off. I guess if he was caught smuggling drugs through the Mexican border.
