IMO a very high percentage of 25 man roster moves are health related. The exceptions: as you say, certain prospects will be strategically added at certain points during the season and there are also some guys who play themselves right off a roster. But this would account on average for one to three moves per team (again based on my experience).
I play with the highest injury settings.

Here is just a sample of 10 days in June for the Pirates last year. Some is injury related as well as brining up Taillon for one start and then sending him back down. Rob Scahill was in the minors for just a week and then brought back up with no obvious pitching injury.

June 11, 2016 Placed C Francisco Cervelli on the 15-day DL. Designated RHP Trey Haley for assignment. Recalled RHP Rob Scahill from Indianapolis (IL). Optioned LHP Kyle Lobstein and INF Cole Figueroa to Indianapolis. Reinstated RHP Arquimedes Caminero from the 15-day DL.
June 9, 2016 Optioned RHP Jameson Taillon to Indianapolis (IL). Recalled LHP Kyle Lobstein from Indianapolis.
June 8, 2016 Optioned RHP Curtis Partch to Indianapolis (IL). Recalled RHP Jameson Taillon from Indianapolis.
June 4, 2016 Optioned RHPs Rob Scahill and Wilfredo Boscan from Indianapolis (IL). Selected the contract of RHP Curtis Partch from Indianapolis. Recalled LHP Cory Luebke from Indianapolis. Sent RHP Arquimedes Caminero to Indianapolis for a rehab assignment. Transferred RHP Ryan Vogelsong to the 60-day DL.
