Despite numerous outlets making light of DJ Stewart losing his footing and the baseball on a flyball in Tuesday night’s game which resulted in a ball off Stewart’s head and a concussion, the 2019 season has been no laughing matter for the 25-year-old Baltimore Orioles outfielder.
After finding himself on the Injured List with an ankle injury, rehabbing his way back, being optioned to Triple-A Norfolk, and finally returning to the major league roster, Stewart is back on the Injured List with a concussion. No timetable for his return has been set yet. With a severe head injury like a concussion, it could be a week or it could take Stewart longer to fully recover.
