Francisco Cervelli decided to wear The Great Gazoo helmet:
Cervelli had said since he was knocked down that he would not wear the helmet but changed his mind when manager Joe Girardi suggested he try it.
“I think he’ll try it and be OK with it,” Girardi said. “I can’t tell my players what helmet to use.”
Said Cervelli: “They worry about everything. I have to stay healthy.”
Minor leaguers are required the Rawlings S100 helmets this year. The change comes after several players missed time last season with concussions.
Wright wore the helmet for two games after coming off the disabled list, but quickly ditched it for his old one, saying it wasn’t comfortable.
I suspect it’s a lot more comfortable than another concussion.
he should bust out the Space Balls Dark Helmet
