The problem seems to be related to fielding balls in play/injury relationship. Catcher's and DH almost never get injured in OOTP 17. 1st basemen also seem to get hurt very rarely. There has been other threads that mention this. I just make sure my big dollar hitters are my catcher, 1st basemen, and a DH. Never sign a big dollar free agent outfielder unless you are going to make him the DH. Having 6-8 cheap interchangeable good defense outfielders is the way to go as 2-4 of them will always be on the DL. The issues seems to multiply itself as players who get injured drop from Normal to Fragile to Wrecked as each injury happens so before long all the outfielders can barely walk while the catchers who never get hurt stay durable forever.
I know that this will probably get attacked - perceptional bias, small sample, no data. I have posted league wide data from my last fictional season in another thread. Catchers comprised 4% of the injuries, DH 0%, outfielders over 30%.
