Yankees Shut Down Anthony Rizzo For Remainder Of Season Due To Lingering Concussion Symptoms

Rizzo collided with Fernando Tatis Jr. in May, suffering a concussion.
His performance declined after the collision, batting just .172 with 1 home run in next 46 games.
He has experienced mental fogginess and cognitive issues related to post-concussion syndrome.
Despite recent cognitive improvements, doctors have not yet cleared him to return.
The Yankees are now out of playoff contention, so the decision was made to shut Rizzo down and focus on next season.
