Jeff Kent is coming back to compete, just not in the pennant race. As The Stew reported in June after others reported it first, Kent will be a contestant on “Survivor: Philippines” come Sept. 19. Lisa Whelchel will also be on the show; she played Blair Warner on “Facts of Life.” Whelchel actually gets top billing above Kent in this post on Entertainment Weekly. And Kent probably likes it that way, for he no doubt will use this slight by the media to help get himself fired up to do major “Survivor” damage.

How awkward does Jeff Kent look in this picture? Steroids!!
