Brad Penny and Karina Smirnoff hooked up in LA back in October. Over the weekend, they hit the beach. Naturally the paparazzi swarmed because Smirnoff looks tremendous in a bathing suit. Penny? He’s just an ordinary pitcher who has somehow collected a staggering $37 million during his decidedly mediocre career. Penny continues to defy the odds: the Cardinals will pay him $7.5 million this year for what will surely be 10-9 and a 4.50 ERA. How Penny landed Eliza Dushku and Alyssa Milano is one of the truly great mysteries in baseball over the last decade.
