If you're an Eckstein -- for example, out-of-work second baseman David Eckstein -- you either need a kidney, or you donate a kidney. Steve Henson (via Yahoo):
David Eckstein On Deck For Kidney Donation
↵↵Everybody goes under the knife. The current Eckstein box score: Five kidney transplants with six more anticipated. Two family members and a close friend have donated kidneys.
↵Until now, David has been left out because of a career that has earned him nearly $20 million. Fans love him. Baseball people respect him. Numbers crunchers deride him. His family spares him.
↵↵Actually, numbers-crunchers liked him quite a bit when he was reaching base 35 percent of the time. But that’s neither here nor there. You just gotta read this story.
