He's playing in quite a bit of pain, and could just shut it down and get surgery now (which, after 4-5 months of recovery, would have him ready for spring training and the WBC. If he waits until October, he could push back his start time next spring.) And yet he sounded as if not playing would really let down his teammates, and was really torn about ending his season now. So he's going to keep playing until he makes up his mind. THAT strikes me as misplaced.
