itt: ButteredToast overreacts to Boston injuries for generally minor players (Jacoby is allowed though. What a wonderful player) in an attempt to justify their level of play so far throughout the season . (which needs no justification because man they're about to destroy for that second wild card)
Can I take this time to be pressing something more serious than my initial reply? Topic of players playing through nagging injuries. I feel as if far too often players play through nagging injuries instead of letting them fully recover. These performances tend to hamper the team incredibly throughout the time period. It seems to me mostly nagging muscle injuries (like back, hamstrings, obliques) aren't being taken seriously by players and they continue to return way too quickly, only to find themselves incredibly underperforming. I get that some people were raised with the idea of playing through the pain, but performance would be a much greater reward in my eyes.
