Alfred E. Nomar
2007-07-10 01:44:00 It's somewhat sad when a formerly productive player can no longer produce at an elite level, and it's even sadder when he pretends that nothing has changed. Nomar Garciaparra has become one of these unfortunate souls. Nomar owns a career 127 OPS+, and in recent years remained a threat, at least when healthy. However, this year his game has taken a dramatic turn for the worse; he's not getting on base, and he's not hitting for any power. That deadly duo is good for a 72 OPS+. Yikes. But at least Nomar isn't worried:"I worry about wins and losses," he said. "I don't worry about myself. Why should I start now?"Because while you may not have had too much to worry about in the past, you do now. You used to be good; now you're not. In fact, if you keep playing like this, you'll be out of a job in no time. And since you insist on being one of those phonies who insists he only cares about the team's performance, and not his own, I'll frame this in terms you can understand: the tea...

Nomar Garciaparra Poised to Cross the Diamond
2007-03-07 10:35:02 Though Nomar Garciaparra is entrenched at first base after a successful transition there last year for the Dodgers, he continues to field liners and grounders at shortstop during infield practice at camp, leading to unconfirmed speculation over circumstances under which he might move back to the middle, or perhaps third base.If the Dodgers were to enact a contingency plan, Garciaparra could move back to his prime position at shortstop should incumbent Rafael Furcal miss time due to continued discomfort to his throwing hand. Garciaparra's move would open first base, at least temporarily, for highly regarded youngster James Loney -- a first baseman who is training as an outfield backup in an effort to find playing time.Another youngster, Wilson Betemint, is under scrutiny at third base, where Garciaparra could move if Betemint continues to fall short, or if prospect Andy La Roche is shown to be unready.Another alternative would allow Furcal, who has experience playing second base, to...
