Now before some of you fine churchgoing people starting a-bitching, of course, I'm talking about RYAN Church, who complained of a migraine headache during Saturday's game, causing J Man to rest him yesterday, as a precaution. As you all further now realize, the Mets totally botched the handling of the Church Concussion #2, failing to DL him when they should have, and basically allowing him to call the shots, which turned out to be a very bad call on the Mets' part.
I hate to burst anyone's bubble, here, but this team isn't going anywhere this year. If I were the Mets, I would seriously consider shutting Ryan down for at least the entire month of July, and then re-evaluate him after that. Maybe he ought to be shut down for the entire season, but we can take it one DL stint at a time.I know Church is once again making noise that the migraine was not a concussion-related issue, but I would submit: how the hell does he know? Is he a doctor? I know he's suffered from migraines before, but hells bells, people, isn't that even a better reason to sit his ass down for awhile?
I mean... yikes!
