Subject: Injured Pitcher Posted by: Dev - [319471720] Tue, Oct 17, 21:03 On one of my teams one of my SP is injured but I can still place him in my lineup. Is that usual? Is that the way it always is or is this an error? My other question is: If I have him listed as starting a game but he really can't pitch will a guy I have listed at SP but don't play pitch or a random minor leaguer or reliever pitch? I have never had that happen that I can remember. Thanks for the help. | ||||||

| 3 | Eric Freda ID: 397342118 Wed, Oct 18, 00:46 | Players who don't play can still get injured. They can get injured off the field or in practice. It doesn't happen often but it does happen. | |||||
| 4 | beastiemiked ID: 145191710 Wed, Oct 18, 02:08 | well he has a 350 health rating and I'm playing guys everyday that have rating lower than 300 and they've yet to get injured in 4+ seasons. Health rating means NOTHING. Injuries are random. | |||||
| 5 | Eric Freda ID: 397342118 Wed, Oct 18, 09:05 | I agree that the health category doesn't mean much. Most guys I've ever had injured oddly have an injury rating over 300 when injured. However I did just have a guy with a 230 rating lost for three weeks as well. But being realistic, even the healthiest of players can pull a hamstring, hurt himself sliding, etc... I remember one story just this year of a major league baseball player hurting himself while watching sportscenter. He turned his head the wrong way and pinched a nerve. No matter how healthy a guy is, he can still get injured. I never really pay attention to the health stat anymore for the most part for those reasons. | |||||
| 6 | Dev ID: 129311818 Wed, Oct 18, 18:34 | Thanks for answering. I am pretty mad because the injured guy is Jason Shiell and my team is tied for first right now. Now my starters and bullpen get much weaker. I just have to stay close. | |||||
| 7 | Jay-P ID: 299331420 Wed, Oct 18, 20:25 | I had a 22 year old go down for the rest of the season, and was wondering if his rating points will decline since he's not playing? | |||||

Well, for one thing, no player under 30 will decline, even if he doesn't play. Also, a player on the DL will not lose ratings points, no matter what his age is. Just make sure to put him back into your lineup/rotation as soon as he is healthy if he is 30 or older. | |||||
