I just did a quick test where I turned down the injury frequency of the major pitching injuries and run a season with the default injury.txt and the revised file. There appears to be a noticeable difference; the first number is the revised vs. original counts in the MLB injury log.

Torn Rotator Cuff 4; 7
Ruptured UCL 4;5
Partially torn UCL 1;4
Torn UCL 0;4
Torn / partially torn labrum 10;22
torn flexor tendon 1;5

I don't think the minor league 60 day DL issue should impact these counts. Also, both the Ruptured UCL and Torn UCL result in the same result which is Tommy John surgery.
