I haven't had a player fully recover from an injury for several years. Real life years not seasons. That is ridiculous. Medical budget should only dictate how long injury lasts not whether they recover or not. Have $20 budget in medical and said player recovers 25% faster. Have zero budget for medical and player takes twice as many days to recover. But most players should fully recover not be ruined because some damn AI killed your best player.

In 2022 the Houston Astros placed 11 different players on the IL (disabled list) throughout the entire season and postseason at the ML level. 2 of those 11 were out for season injuries. In this game I don't think I have ever had 11 different players go on the DL at the ML level in one season. Injuries are not really out of hand in this game compared to real life.

To be fair, its harder to build depth on a team because of the demotion penalties.
