Nomar Garciaparra joins the Dodgers Broadcasting crew! The local boy from Whittier, California returns to the Dodgers!

Congratulations Nomah!
the Dodgers are also pursuing ex-Dodger Orel Hershiser to be an announcer and the future broadcasting face of the team, according to USA Today. Hershiser is also currently with ESPn, though is contract will soon expire.

Does that mean that they expect Orel to take over from Vin Scully to do play by play?
I think so Brian. I did not know Dodgers had that cooking in the stove.
I always liked Nomar, and I wish him the best. Should make for some interesting interviews and stuff. Having Orel on the staff would be classic, too.
