NOOOOOO! (mar)

Dude... can an athlete be any more fragile?

When the Cubs resigned him instead of pursuing a worthy SS that isn't in the shop more often than a Volkswagen (like Edgar Rentaria), I cringed bigtime... I never draft nor trade for Nomar in fantasy baseball even when he is hitting at one of his absurd clips because he never stays healthy.

At least the contract was for only one year...

P.S. I hate to do this since I am a Cubs fan, but I have to note that his injury rate and, importantly, the types of injuries say one thing to me: steroids. Nomar has a lot of power for his natural frame (Have you ever seen him without his shirt? The boy is ripped.) and he has had a ton of musculotendinous injuries...
