Having had a family member with a concussion, following Joe Mauer's recovery is easier to judge.
About 10 days after the injury, Mauer reportedly wore a cap to a press conference due to sensitivity to the camera lights.(http://www.startribune.com/sports/twins/221690821.html)
Our experience says if he's having any sensitivity to lights, or sounds, Mauer or no human being is even close to ready to stand in against 90-mph fastballs. No doctor would clear him to play, and the Twins can't risk aggravating the injury in their biggest investment any further when so little is at stake anymore this season.
