When I get them, I usually let it go if it makes sense. I had a guy who won three Cy Youngs in a row, but tore his labrum the next year and fell victim to CEI. It sucked but I let it happen given that torn labrums can legitimately do that. But if I have a guy who obtains a CEI from baserunning or diving for a ball, I just edit the eventual return from injury to like a year or something.

There are some "diving for a ball" injuries that could be career ending (severe concussions, fractured skull, etc). Baserunning though is pretty unlikely, although a torn ACL could probably still be career ending.
With pitchers though, even something like a torn finger tendon could be career ending (I'm not sure if it can be by default in OOTP)
