So here is an example similar to the OP. This is from an ai-managed team.
Since this DtD began, this SP has had 1 bad game - his most recent. Was this predictable? I think yes:
1. The current DtD injury seems quite moderate - elbow soreness. Not something I would rush to put on the DL. However, because he is a SP and it is his money arm, I would certainly monitor.
2. He has a considerable history of injury in that area, and in that specific bodypart. He even had surgery several seasons ago. For this reason I would have immediately put him on the DL with the current DtD when it first occurred.
Combine this history with his age I would not have kept him in the rotation with his current DtD, even though it was moderate. Another player, without the same history, I might have.
