Andy LaOuch

Did I say I was going to jinx the L.A. Dodgers or did I say I was going to jinx the L.A. Dodgers?

Just days after predicting they would win the World Series, third baseman and Rookie of the Year candidate Andy LaRoche tore a tigament in his thumb and will miss two months or more. And it was on a totally freak play. There was a rundown, an errant throw, and a riccochet. Interestingly, LaRoche had just entered the game to replace Nomar Garciaparra, who had to leave the game after being hit by a pitch. Luckily for Nomar, his x-rays are negative, and for now, the third base job is his.
