ive done away with cei's altogether. i edited the injury file, leaving only fractured skull as the injury that has potential to be a career ender. i think its really unrealistic to expect a player to retire a day immediately after his injury, regardless of how severe it was. even tony saunders, who suffered a fracture of his pitching arm, managed to rehab and come back, break his arm again and returned several years later in the minors. its an extreme example, but a good one. if nothing else, severe injuries should curtail development in younger players and reduce abilities permanently. this way, a player may still get a chance to catch on in the minors or in another league (if your structure is set up like that) that has less than MLB quality baseball. if he can't catch on with the diminished abilities post-injury, then the player should retire.
i cant really think of any examples IRL of a baseball player getting injured and immediately announcing their retirement.
