Mickey Callaway talked the other night about there being a different threshold for players to be medically cleared to play major league baseball, even if they’ve been allowed to play in the minors, and immediately alarm bells went off all over the various precincts of the Mets’ fan base because, well … nobody had ever heard of that before.
Of course, a little later, David Wright himself, the subject of Callaway’s remarks, reiterated that alleged protocol — “I have been told I need to do certain things to become activated, and I’m willing to do that” — and the alarm bells were still awfully loud.
