I'd extend this to even other long-term injuries. I don't know if you could tie this to a player's durability rating, maybe that wouldn't be the best way. It's noticeable that some players rebound from an injury and get better (Schilling), while others never reach the levels that they did before their injury. Along the injury lines, some players have nagging injuries that aren't necessarily day-to-day, but they still affect performance (such as Chipper playing all season with bone chips).
Sorry for the tangent. As for development, I'd like to see coaches have a more measureable influence on player development.
