Blue Jays’ Pompey shut down with concussion
On Thursday, the Blue Jays made a somewhat expected announcement, confirming that Dalton Pompey will be shut down for awhile because of a concussion sustained in the World Baseball Classic.
As much as it’s fun to watch out beloved MLB players competing in a tournament like the World Baseball Classic, it always brings the apprehension that someone will get hurt, while on loan from their MLB teams.
That’s exactly what’s happened for Canadian outfielder, Dalton Pompey.
Pompey sustained a concussion earlier in the week, as he attempted to steal second base. At the time, he appeared to be okay as he stayed in the game and went back on defence, but was replaced in the next inning.
