Questions about Fragile injury history

[dawg_gone]

Does a player with a Fragile injury history ever go back to Normal?

Should I dump a Fragile player like a hot potato?

How likely are they to suffer an injury during the season? Is it a given?

I was scanning through my roster and realized I have six guys with Fragile injury history, three of whom are middle relievers. Two of those guys are really good MRs (per my scout) but I'm not sure I want to take a chance on it.

I have found the "fragile" rating to be tenuous at best.
I have players labelled "fragile" that have gone years without even a minor injury.
And I have players labelled "normal" that have suffered continual lengthy injuries.
I would prefer not to see the "fragile" label as it is unnerving, but I wouldn't reject or dump a player just because of it.

Thanks for the sanity check. It is definitely unnerving to see it. There was a batch of posts here about six months ago about it, and my takeaway was as you say, it's a tenuous label.

I basically decided to stay the course for now, although I did trade one of the middle relievers for a player with a Normal injury history. I've got some salary room so I can bring in someone else if I need to.
