Suggestion
For serious injuries, the amount of time for recovery should not be announced until a few weeks or months. For example, if a pitcher needs Tommy John Surgery, the injury time should say "Indefinite", then about a year later it should say whether his career is over or if he can return.
Reason
It's much more realistic that way. Career Ending Injuries are far too frequent in OOTP as it is, but when they do occur, they shouldn't always be announced on the spot. Usually it takes a while to determine the severity. For instance, when the Mariners' former top prospect Ryan Anderson tore a labrum, he was out for over a year. It wasn't until one or two years later that it was determined he would never play again. It makes it much more suspenseful that way, too.
