[QUOTE=JerseyPirate;4712915]In my experience, fragile young starting pitchers are the WORST type of player. They will never make it through a full season again. My typical young fragile pitcher has to leave around 5 starts each year due to a sore back or dead arm and then has at least 1 DL stint of at least a month. And it usually happens in September right before playoff time.(/quote]
Use them differently. As relievers. As piggyback starters

I agree completely to trade him now while his value is highest. AI doesn't seem to care about injury proneness and I've been able to flip fragile pitchers for top talent numerous times.

Unless this is the case
Then arbitrage trade them
But, if this is true, it's something the developers need to change
