The Dodgers’ Trayce Thompson and Miguel Rojas are among those who think the benefits of the international tournament outweigh the potential risks.
GLENDALE, Ariz. — The debate started as soon as Edwin Diaz hit the turf Wednesday night.suffered a serious knee injury while celebrating Puerto Rico’s victory over the Dominican Republic
“Obviously if you’re a Mets fan or a member of the Mets, you’d rather him get hurt on your terms. But it is what it is. I think the whole baseball community feels for him and hopes he comes back fast and recovers well.” Dodgers infielder Miguel Rojas agrees and thinks it might be good for baseball to start thinking like other sports have for years.
Rojas said he is “suffering” watching Venezuela play on without him. He withdrew from Venezuela’s roster before the WBC began when Gavin Lux’s injury put him in position to be the Dodgers’ primary shortstop – an injury that happened while Lux was running the bases in a meaningless exhibition game. “That’s horrible. Nobody wants that to happen,” Kershaw said of Diaz’s injury. “I understand teams’ reservations behind it. I get it. Especially on the pitching side. But it seems like a pretty fun event, a pretty intense atmosphere. Miami and Arizona, you haven’t seen crowds like that during the regular season.FIRST AND SECOND
