I think Mitch Williams is saner than Kruk. Not saying much, but that is my opinion. Does Milt Thompson count as a star?

My guess it's a shot at the silly thread title for Coste managing from last week.

For anyone who hasn't heard, Mitch Williams will be responding, to Dykstra's remarks, on WIP's morning show on Tuesday.

Ah, that appears to be correct. This must be his gimmick for naming threads. Weird.

Reminders that Dykstra could be passing his time less constructively are not hard to come by. The day after my house tour, he got a rambling phone message from a former Phillies teammate, who was calling from the Borgata casino, in Atlantic City. Dykstra repeated the player’s last name aloud and shook his head. Then he told Terri about it. She looked distressed but not surprised. “How’d he get your number?” she asked.

Kruk doesn't curse out officials at youth sports games.

But Kevin Dykstra, the brother of former Philadelphia Phillies and New York Mets outfielder Lenny Dykstra, was among those interviewed by Mitchell’s investigators and described them as being very thorough.

“These guys were very friendly, very professional and fair,” Kevin Dykstra said. “Their concerns were the steroids. How and why it happened, and how players were getting them, so they could prevent future abuse.”

In the Dykstra element of the investigation, Mitchell’s attorneys investigated his brother, a former business partner who sued the ballplayer over business matters, a former childhood friend in Arizona who claimed to have injected Dykstra, a Florida bodybuilder who claims to have injected the player, and at least two others with knowledge of his alleged abuses, Kevin Dykstra of Corona said.

Kevin Dykstra said he was contacted during the summer by Mitchell investigators who identified themselves as Jonathan King and Matt Hiller after he first met with baseball’s security director, Kevin Hallinan, to discuss his brother’s alleged baseball gambling activities. The brothers had a falling out over their car wash business.

Investigators were interested in Kevin Dykstra’s related information that his brother would sometimes fly to road games separately from his team and stay in separate five-star hotels, where he would host parties in which drugs were sometimes exchanged among top players from opposing teams.

He said Dykstra routinely circumvented unsupervised random tests for street drugs by having someone in the clubhouse take the test for him. Dykstra never tested positive.

Lenny Dykstra’s attorney, Daniel Petrocelli, said he rejected a request by Mitchell investigators to interview Dykstra.

“It’d be absurd for anyone to walk into an ambush, especially this one that is apparently being fueled by rumor and innuendo,” Petrocelli said.

He said he was denied the opportunity to see transcripts or to view documents related to his client in a letter sent by Mitchell.

“It seems more like the Salem witch trials than a proceeding with integrity,” Petrocelli said. “I told them they needed to be careful with the information they reported. They could be sued for defamation. I told them that, they’re not a judge, they’re lawyers. They have no right to defame, and that report better stick to the facts.”

Petrocelli said he had “never heard stories before,” and said Lenny Dykstra’s brother “has extreme animosity” and “issues” with the former ballplayer.

Former Met center fielder Lenny Dykstra worked himself out of a jam yesterday, settling a lawsuit over an unpaid $139,000 bill from a Midtown accounting firm.

The scrappy former leadoff hitter known as "Nails" wouldn't reveal any details after the closed-door court session in Manhattan federal court.

But the three-time All-Star bragged that plaintiff DDK & Co. "folded like Mitch Williams in the ninth,"
