Pitcher vs. Position Player Injury Mix

I posted in this in the general discussions, but think it better belongs here now based on the feedback as I believe this should be a bug and researched by the development team:

I play with realistic injury setting and the total number of injuries is what I would expect. However, the distribution between position players and pitchers is way off. In my last test sim, 32 of the 175 players on the injury report at the end of the season where pitchers. The current MLB DL has 98 pitchers out of 160 total players. If pitchers and hitters are equally likely to be injured and based on current MLB that seems like a stretch the odds that random chance creates only 20% of DL worthy injuries to pitchers is microscopic.
