Aaron Hill status

[Duncanfan]

I know he had a concussion and all, whats the status update on him? Is he even going to come back to baseball or is he likely done? Would appreciate some sort of an update..

He is still having dizzy spells.

We just don't know when he will come back. I hope it's not like Corey Koskie's situation, who's been out with post concussion symptoms since 2006. This stuff is scary! I hope Hill recovers and gets back to playing the game he loves one day.

darn, i completely forgot about Koskie!

Here's a wikipedia paragraph on him FYI:

Still dealing with postconcussion syndrome, Corey Koskie reiterated in mid-June 2007 that he wasn't certain whether he would play baseball again. "If I can't play, I at least want my life back," he said. "I'm hoping to do something to help the team this year. I want to play baseball again. If I can play baseball, I know I'm fine."[1]

The injury caused him to miss the entire 2007 season. [2] Koskie was in town for the last weekend of the regular season and reported that he began making progress in his recovery around the beginning of September after starting to work with a new therapist.

The Brewers in October 2007 declined to pick up the 2008 option for Koskie. The agreement stipulated that the teams would split the $500,000 buyout, so the Brewers will pay $250,000 for declining the 2008 option

But on topic, yeah, Aaron Hill has been missed, and turned Scutaro into an everyday player.

Well...they've just placed him on the 60 day DL (no link) so it seems he will be out for the forseeable future....posssibly the season. As Leafs fans always say...."there's always next year."
