that is true, however i did historical sim starting with 1976 NOT with historical linesups or transactions.

So throughout his career his was often injured. Although i don't know where those stats would be kept...i don't see injury days on baseball ref dot com.
I just know he was plagued with injuries.

So if IRONMAN one year, can you become FRAGILE the next?
Still feels random

What I really want to do is simulate games where a person that was injured would have changed the history of the season.

What if CLEMENTE did not die
What if medicinee and training were around to keep KOUFAX and DRYSDALE playing until there 40s
What if Ray Fosse never got bolled over by Pete Rose
: )

Ideas:
Set injury frequency to LOW (i did that, not sure if that is the reason)
Set aging DEVELPMENT to LOW .10
Remove real retirement year option
Then the laborious process of going to each player to adjust their durabily
