What is wrong with Nick Leddy? He's missed two months and his absence has caused us to trade for Fowler (who I like). When he first went out of the lineup Leddy was thought to be *day to day."

Great question. I can't recall any similar situation where a player doesn't have an injury event we know of, but is clearly playing through something, then gets pulled from the lineup for that injury, misses a ton of time and has no surgery announced while the team acts like he'll miss the full season with a trade for his position.

Krug, it was announced exactly what was wrong, that he's having surgery, and a time table for reevaluation. Leddy just disappeared. "Nick who? Oh yea him, he's day-to-setback, we'll see him in.....here's Cam Fowler"

Is it possible Leddy was facing a choice between surgery and managing an issue and went with managing, and then had a significant setback where he re-damaged whatever wasn't fully healed? That seems like a thing that could happen to a person instead of it being an unprecedented outlier

Wonder if it's something like high ankle sprain, groin, stress fracture, or something that doesn't really have a surgical option, and can be something that just lingers, so a timeline that is hard to predict.

Sure. But something can also be a thing that happens to a person AND an outlier. Me saying I can't recall a similar situation is a weird thing to get offended about.

We don't know much about what's going on. It could be a lot of things. Any of them if true by definition of having happened to a person, Leddy, would be a thing that could happen to a person. I apologize profusely for not explicitly recognizing that whatever the thing that happened to this person could be a thing that could happen to a person.

noticing what a person fails to consider does not equate to getting offended.

it might in a caricature narrative conjured by someone, but not in actuality

Fine whatever, you weren't offended. I have no idea what you are on about though. I didn't say something so obvious it doesn't bear mentioning. Nick Leddy is a person. Do I have to hire Brian39 to draft some small print boilerplate pointing out all the obvious things to put at the bottom of my posts. Majorityof1 hereby recognizes that water is wet, the sky is blue, and a person is a person.

'that could happen to a person' colloquially = a normal thing that could be expected.
ie, not an outlier.
interestingly enough, "outliership" vs. normal thing was the whole observation.

I guess that was too self contained, calm and on point
we had to create a whole victim pedantry pageant out of it

That is not a colloquialism. Colloquially is an informal way of expressing something that has meaning based on its usage in normal conversation. I don't know what weird conversations you have, but "that could happen to a person" is not more informal than "that's normal", nor does it connote that in any normal conversation.

By trying to impress people with your language, you are completely incapable of speaking informally for a colloquialism. Like "victim pedantry pageant"? Really? What does that even mean? I know what the nouns mean individually, but you can't just string 3 multiple nouns together and think it creates some meaning. Pedantic is the adjective form of pedantry. So let's go with that. Is the pageant pedantic or the victim? Are you saying its a pageant of pedantic victims? Or is the pageant really focused on the details? A Pedantic pageant of victims? Or do the victims own the pageant? Maybe its a victim's pedantic pageant? Anyway, it must be a colloquialism, and I should get it. But you are much smarter than I, you own a thesaurus, even if you don't know how to use it.

You're arguing with an expert on that topic. Why?

So anyway the thing that happened to Leddy seems like something that happens to older players sometimes in the normal course of things and isn't an outlier.

Sorry to inflict such damage with it, hope you heal in time for Santa
