Can a season really be ended if it never began?
The Yankees announced that OF Jacoby Ellsbury's 2018 campaign is over.....without ever officially beginning. Ellsbury has not appeared in a single game all season. 21 million dollars to literally not work. What a sport! Of course my connection to Jacoby is that he was a fantastic, yet often injured CF for the Red Sox from 2007-2013. A career capped off with World Series championships. I'll never forget the spark he was for the 07 sox as rookie. Then the stolen base in the World Series, Tacoby Bellsbury. Man that nickname should've taken off. It was my yahoo fantasy baseball name for two years.
I hate Pete Abe ( I was once 3 feet away from him at Fenway once and he's maaaybe 5 4?) but man that is a solid point.
When Jacoby signed with the Yankees I was upset just because I liked Jacoby and hate(d) the Yankees. Even though I thought moving on was the right call, it just sucks he ended up in pinstripes. I had a legitimate nightmare about that very scenario happening in 2011 (his could've been MVP / possible roids year?) and I woke up in like a panic, where you realize it was just a dream but are still freaking out and don't calm down right away. Like when you think you killed someone in a dream and wake up and are like wait... that didn't happen right?
Just me? Okay then. While I hate what Jacoby did by going to New York, I also love it for the long term effect it's had on them. Then again more credit to them for giving him horrendous contract that the Red Sox were smart enough to avoid. 153 million over 7. Jacoby is in year 5. lol Imagine having that plus Pablo and Hanley? Even though I'm happy he's fucking over the Yankees, hard. It makes me sad to see how bad Jacoby has been post Sox. Lot of battles with injuries and just unproductive play. I'd love to see them just outright release him then watch him have like 3 good years for the Cardinals or some classic NL team. Godspeed, Tacoby. (this has been my photo on my yahoo email since 2007)

It's sad because Jacoby Ellsbury wouldn't be seen this season. Of course, this is pretty frustrating for the fans because they were expecting to see him play this season. But because of some health reasons, he needs to rest and the surgery has to take place as soon as possible. Well, he is not resigning, that's a good news. But we need to give him the medical rests that he needs for now. Though I am a fan, I will support him with his decision.

Athletes are people who make a living by using their bodies. Well, you can say that everyone does that, however, they are those who take it to the extreme. The literally train their bodies so that they can perform amazing feats. Which is why, it is important for an athlete to keep their body well maintained. Injuries like this one can cause their careers to end in a very horrible fashion. I pray for the success of your hip surgery.
