I remember hearing this live and I just thought he was making a hypothetical. He wasn't implying it was a smart move. I think Lyon is just upset he can't play anymore of the series, which is also understandable.

It's also a touchy subject for a lot of the players (like Lyon) who played with Phil Hughes.

That's a great point I hadn't thought of. I appreciate that "being hit in the head" is something that players don't want to take lightly.
