‘Too eager to throw him under the bus’: OK, last post on Nomar. From Steve:
“Maybe what Larry Lucchino said was true and Nomar was malingering for some unclear reason but the Red Sox were also way too eager to throw him under the bus after the trade. In the long run that's a mistake. As much as I hate the Yankees you don't see this out of them. They've had their share of gripers but they didn't get in a public pissing match with Clemens and Pettite after they left and they ignore the Jeff Nelson's and David Wells'. ..."
As I've said, Nomar didn't acquit himself well, but this ownership team, I don’t know ...
