News that he's not coming to NY. I guess he'll be at 1B with the Dodgers..

So how is this gonna work out when Izturis comes back? They have Mueller at third, Furcal (weep) at short, Badass at 2nd and Nomar at 1st?
You'd think that he'd sign somewhere that would take advantage of all his athletic abilities, (not 1B), but, maybe he's too sore to play short anymore. Didn't Ernie Banks make the SS-1B switch during his career?
Nomar will be 33 this year and has had some serious health issues in recent years. Nice to have a great hitter in the middle of the lineup and middle infielder hands playing first if you can get it. First will wear him down less than short and hopefully keep him in the lineup where he should have some very productive years left.
