I think you guys have done a nice job in studying this data and applaud you for that.

The couple of things I would strongly agree with that have been mentioned.

1. Shorter injuries and less CEI to hitters, longer injuries and more CEI to pitchers
2. Younger players should heel faster and have less chances of CEI. I am guessing this could be a lot of the reason people are frustrated, losing 2 young cfs to CEI's in the same year would seem to be a 1 and million type thing.

3. It would be a great addition down the road if instead of being told right away its a career ending injury to have some sort of 6 month injury then be told there were more complications and this players needs another surgery so on a so forth. If it were done this way the move wouldnt seem as devastating as you had already played 6 months with out him and had sort of moved on without knowing it.
