Lenny Dykstra sounds off on former manager, 1988 Dodgers

Former All-Star Lenny Dysktra, who has battled his share of legal troubles since retiring from baseball, sounded off on the 1988 Dodgers and his former manager Davey Johnson in a Twitter thread on Sunday night.

The former Met, who was given the nickname Nails for his hard style of play, is still sour over Davey Johnson’s decision to let Dwight Gooden pitch the 9th inning of Game 4 of the National League Championship Series against the Dodgers.

The Mets entered the inning with a 4-2 lead, looking to put a stranglehold on the series and take a 3-1 games lead.
