Season from hell with injuries. Was hoping no fractures but thats tough to see a way he comes back this year. The amount of injuries in modern sports just isn’t fair.

I certainly hope they can figure something out. Just think that probably causes enough vision issues that I'm not sure if it's viable. 

Fingers crossed. But do think the end result will be Bregman's year being done barring a major run. 

I don’t know if he’ll play again this year, but if you can play with it and not have vision issues in basketball, you should be able to do the same in baseball

I think it's a bit different. In basketball while it's quick, you don't have to force it under yet another protective device, all while an object that is literally 100mph travels *at* you and needing as much vision to see that little object. 

The sheer ability to get it to fit under a helmet without that further affecting you has to be an issue to begin with. 

We will see. If there's one player who can handle this, if it's possible and just pain management, it's Bregman.

Worst case scenario he may be able to DH at least.

I was looking for some examples of these types of injuries.  Kevin Pillar was hit in the face with a pitch, suffered multiple nasal fractures, underwent facial surgery, and returned to play exactly two weeks later.  He wore a face mask while in the field and running the bases, C flap helmet while batting.

Worst case scenario he never plays again.

Only way to make this right is for the baseball gods to bless us with a Cubs with no Bregman vs Yankees with no Judge World Series
