Yes, the Dodgers probably made a mistake in bringing Nomar back and in doing so simultaneously paying for Loney's ticket back to AAA (by the way, am I the only one who thinks it's a bad idea to have your future stars learning how to be a professional big leaguer in "Sin City"? Just a thought). But come on. It's Nomar. He's averaged 88 games over the last three years. Him having lasted for 122 games last year was considered a major achievement and he still missed 1/4 of the year! An injury will open up a spot for Loney sooner or later and he'll get his chance. Besides, he's only 22 yeard old. He probably does deserve a cup of coffee by now but he really should just suck it up like the others. It's Nomar. I felt much worse for Ryan Howard.
