Way too many injuries

smythejd · 07-26-2013, 10:53 PM

I have a pretty powerful team. My Almendares Sporpions were runner up last year and made some good moves to strengthen the weak spots. I was looking good going into the season with quality and quantity infield and Starting pitching.

As you can see, my 2B, 3B and SS have been decimated from injuries. Also, my 2nd, 3rd and 4th starters are out also. Have played many, many seasons and never had this many injuries. Might be time for a new Trainer. What do you say?

Stuff happens?

Stuff does happen...

Just hard to stomach my top 6 infielders and 3 (of top 4) pitchers. Tough, tough season...

Dont mean to whine... These challenges are some of the things I love about this game. Just very surprised it happened. And hope it does not continue...

that list is for your organization not JUST for the Major league level. i be surprised if that was just for your big league team

This league just has a reserve roster, no minor leagues. All players listed represent my top two players at 2nd, 3rd and SS. It is really amazing.

Just played a couple more games and another middle infielder when down.

Even if he wasn't playing with reserve rosters, the injury list separates Major League players from Minor League ones:

To the OP: Everyone's had a season like this at least once. I once had my entire starting rotation on the DL at the same time. Needless to say, we did not make the playoffs that year.

I just had to deal with injuries to my 2B,SS, DH, LF, ACE SP, and my 3 best RP all in September. Manged to take the division by the skin of my teeth. Ended up losing in the ALDS.

For my current 2008 season. I have my starting RF (6wks), starting C (3wks), 2 OD MR (season & 4wks) my 4th OF (4wks) who I traded for on the DL. I have had a few misc day to day or even 2 day injuries. I have it on Normal and I have just AAA. I have the 2nd best trainer in my league. I just think it is a fluke part of the year. Mid June players are semi tired and what not. We have had a "Does 11,12,13,15.. have too many injuries" threads. See my thread bout having 3 injuries and 1 player given the heave ho in one game. That was a 1st for me.
Minor leagues I only have 2 players on the DL. RA Dickey out for the season and a CF (8wks)

I would say the bigger problem is that you haven't had that many injuries in many, many seasons before, as that is a pretty realistic injury list, if not too few compared to reality.

Of course, you can change the frequency to suit your expectations.
