I don’t think it’s a bad look. I do however think there is a lot of missing context.
Medical imaging isn’t that cut and dry. Especially injuries that small. Each type of imaging has their advantages and disadvantages. Odds are, the O’s doctors aren’t even the first ones who interpret the imaging. Radiologists do that, so I’m willing to bet that the Orioles doctors were the second opinion, because they were the second set of eyes to interpret it.
Was it a partial thickness tear? Full thickness? How was he finally diagnosed? If more than one MRI didn’t catch it, it was most likely a surgeon who went in arthroscopically. That’s the most invasive way, so that’s why it’s last.
