    Lenny Dykstra charged.

    Dykstra was charged today with bankruptcy fraud for removing and selling property that was part of the bankruptcy estate without permission. Happened in July 2009, took them long enough.

    That proves why nobody should ever listen to what Cramer says. Dykstra played all out, and his body started to quit on him.

    Cramer is a savant, no one can replicate what he does and that show is a waste of time, but its interesting to note that Dykstra was a self taught investor. Supposedly he needed money and just started studying the stock market.

    Dykstra and Cramer worked together, and pumped loser stocks. I'm not surprised he had to file bankruptcy. But he was a great player when he played the game!

    Former Baseball All-Star Lenny Dykstra Looks Terrible In His New Uniform





    Judging by this booking photo, ex-baseball star Lenny Dykstra has seen far better days.

    The 48-year-old Dykstra was indicted this month for bankruptcy fraud. The former New York Met allegedly sold off valuable possessions despite court orders barring the transfer of assets in his bankrupt estate.

    Dykstra, now under house arrest at a friend’s California residence, posed for this United States Marshals Service mug shot following his bust last month. He is due in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles on May 31 for a post-indictment arraignment.

    There was an article a million years ago in a magazine about him losing 40,000 a week gambling.
