It reminds me of Pete Reiser of the Brooklyn Dodgers. He had great talent, but a penchant for running into OF walls. He was fearless, but not in a good way, in terms of his career. The injuries kept up, and his skills diminished as a result. A guy the fans loved for his hustle and daring. No idea if you guy is the reincarnation of Reiser.

Is there any pattern to the injuries? I can't see any, from the screenshot. He's all over the place - every part of the body. Some guys cannot seem to avoid muscle strains and sprains. Once those hamstrings get pulled or torn, it is going to take time for them to heal, and a lot of stretching before games to retain flexibility and prevent injury. But he is a basket case, from that history. I wonder if there is anything that could be "fixed" in the development lab. Or could the guy DH?
