Mike Fish an investigative reporter at ESPN.com wrote this article detailing the current and past financial troubles of former Met Lenny “Nails” Dykstra. The in-depth article goes into how Dykstra is being sued my many people, including his own family for the money he owes them. It also discusses the many business deals gone wrong and how Dykstra never really made all those great stock picks that made Jim “Mad Money” Cramer paint Dykstra as a financial guru.

A very interesting and sad article at the same time. It seems like Dykstra’s world is one filled with lies and greed. I loved Lenny Dykstra as a player on the Mets but as a person it seems he won’t equal his value on the field.
