Just occurred to me that this means he’ll miss the London series, what a bummer. Hurts to lose a guy like Alvy because he’s great but also because he visibly wants to play and contribute so much 🥺
Just thankful he should be back this season. 8 weeks takes us to Julyish, which still gives him about half a season to play.
I miss him already so much
Is that 8 week + time rehab assignment in minors, or is that 8 weeks total ?
As long as he comes back with a bionic thumb
God man, I don’t want to go back to the days of a catcher hitting .150 😭
