Is there any type of correlation in HBD between injury prevention and position played?  Would an injury prone player stay relatively more healthy at a less demanding position like 1B than say OF or C?

I started a 1B in LF for his bat. Wasn't long before he got injured. Isolated incident, I know. But I think if you are playing a guy out of position you may be puting him at risk. To have a guy with 45 range patrolling CF may put a lot of stress on him(not to mention all thos flyballs getting past him for inside-the-park HRs). Unless he's such a good bat that you have to have him in the lineup, I'd stay away from playing guys too far out of the positions they should play.
