I keep waiting for someone to ask, since people keep making references to it.  Heck I even saw support refer to it as a "known issue."  However, I can find anywhere people actually lay out what it is.  What is the "medical bug"?

If you max out your medical budget, and put an injured player on the 60-day DL and leave him there after he has recovered, he will continue to improve in his physical ratings, well beyond what they were before he became injured.

Now it looks like you only get the injury recovery boost as he comes off the dl. In the past you could leave a player on the 60 day dl and see more ratings bumps.

Yep

hopefully admin is aware of this and fixing it...

It definitely has not been fixed yet:

Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Rey Tazawa

That guy is obviously not an important piece, but he illustrates the bug very well.  He was pretty much done progressing, experienced a massive injury, and now is much better than he ever was before the injury.  From what I can see, this is only an issue with injuries that are carried over from previous seasons.  I have found that when I have a 150-day injury to a player in-season, he won't get any injury update cycles until the last day before he is ready to come off the DL.  If he has a long injury that is carried over from previous seasons, then he will get injury updates periodically.  As you can see, Tazawa has received three injury bumps this year and we are only 67 games into the minor league schedule.  There are two issues with the way recovery is handled:

1) Players on the DL from the previous season see miraculous recovery, where they end up significantly better than before they got hurt
2) Players with current-season injuries don't receive any injury recovery until the last cycle before they come off the DL.

Injuries are such an important part of the game.  I really wish Admin would address this issue.

I have a player that about to come off the DL. The regular season will be over a few days before he can come off DL. At the moment my Medical is at 18. If I leave him on the DL threw the off season. And bump my medical up to 20 to start the next season. Will this help get him a few points back?

And can I loose the off season and spring training gains keeping him on the DL?

Any feedback would be great.

Thanks
 

Well never mind. Looks like I have had him on the the 7-day DL all along.
