Len Dykstra #655

 


This week, a guy with a reputation so bad a judge said he was "libel proof"...it's Lenny (or Len on this card) Dykstra! Dykstra aka "Nails" was a hard nosed player who scrapped and clawed his way to a 12 season career, a couple all star games, a 2nd place MVP finish, and a 1986 World Series ring.
