But if a mega talented Mariner had put up super star numbers several years in a row and then had a poor year at 27 due to injuries, I don't think you'd immediately throw him off the bus. You would explain to us what those injuries were, explain how they affected him and give an estimate of how healthy you'd expect him to be going forward. That was your exact approach when Felix got hurt.
You didn't do that here. It was simply "he looks terrible, his numbers are terrible, therefor he is finished". If we were talking about an over-the-hill player like a Johjima or Vidro that might be sufficient but not for a guy just entering his prime.
