I haven't seen this exact situation you mention, but this length of injury does seem to increase the chance the player becomes fragile or wrecked, which is about as damaging to their career path as the ratings downgrade.
My pet injury peeve of the moment is sprained ankles. I know we live in the era of pampered athletes, but I just had my league-leading homerun hitting 1st baseman go on the DL for 6 weeks for a sprained ankle. To add insult to injury, he just snuck off the DL long enough to win the home run challenge (that one needs to be fixed).
I've coached 8th and 9th grade girls with ankles swollen so badly they could hardly put on a shoe that would say nothing to anyone about it for the fear of being forced to sit out a game. I realize the injury description is more or less random, but maybe this one could be tied to only day-to-day injuries to keep my head from exploding. Or at least be accompanied by one of those "attendance almost crashed" alerts as fans go across town to watch the girls play softball.
