1.  I never said in my first post that 100 health rating players should never get injured and did not mean to imply they should not either.
2.  This is not a witch hunt.  I am not out to prove any HBD user right or wrong.  
3.  I admit the data I am collecting is limited and misses small injuries where the player is not put on the DL.  Usefullness of this data is therefore limited

With no prior data to compare this with, I have no way to prove injuries are up or down right now.  It is more curiosity than anything to see how various worlds compare with each other.  If you want to help by providing your worlds data, great.  If you don't want to help and instead want to slam me and assign alterior motives to what I am doing, you have the right to do but any and all such talk will be meaningless.

Not slamming you at all...just didn't understand the point to this part:

"In Edmonds, we recently had an owner (not me) with $20mil training (helps reduce frequency of injuries) and $20mil medical (helps reduce length of injuries) budgets have a 100 health rated player go down with a season ending injury towards the beginning of the season."

I hate to sound so harsh, but so what? Sounds like random injury to me. What do the budgets, etc have to do with anything? I like what you are doing, I just didn;t get what that part had to do with anything.

While threads like this may be well-meaning, you shouldn't be surprised that others question your motivation.    Pretty much every similar thread has turned into a complaint about whatever they're "collecting data" for.   As for the data, I think it's going to be really useless.   I won't put a guy with a 4 day injury on the DL, SIMMY will.  Anyone letting SIMMY run their minors will have a lot more injuries. 

Here's what I'll tell you about injuries.  High health guys are not immune but their injury frequency is much less than a guy in the 20s.   However, some guys in the 20s never get injured.

I had 20 in training and 20 in medical for the first time this past season, and I had my worst season ever for injuries.  I know it's random, but my sense is that putting a lot of money in medical doesn't seem to buy you as much as in other budget categories.

I had one team get POUNDED at the ML level -- 8 major injuries to pitchers, six of those alone to SPs, and that's with 20/20.  A couple were lower health, most were not. That's the only team I've seen an increase on, so I'm just thinking it's an injury bomb of epic unfortunate luck on that team...

I'm pretty sure I could do without any more threads discussing trop getting pounded.

Can't you pull all of this yourself in under an hour by going to the list of worlds and looking at the DL List report?

I never even thought about doing it that way but your right, it can be done that way.   May be able to find some free time this weekend to do it.  Thanks!
