I have no problem with the amount of injuries to pitchers but my issue is that pitchers who are injury-proned get far too many injuries and those that are not get too few. I think an adjustment needs to be made to balance it a little. When a pitcher has an "Overall Proneness" rating of 200 (as found in editor) he is worthless. I just noticed that one of these pitchers had 12 different injuries in one season. That just doesn't seem realistic.

Also, in real-life some pitchers who start their careers as injury-prone will suddenly have have several years without injuries (and vice-versa). So I don't think a pitcher should be condemned to be injury-prone throughout their entire career. I haven't noticed if injury ratings are static for all players. If they are I think they should be allowed to go up or down throughout their careers. I hate having to dump players early on because there is no hope they will be able to stay healthy in the future.
