SIM COMPLETE - 1989 - Regular Season 22

Is there any truth to any of this or are we over analyzing the game? Would OOTP recognize for an injury prone player a year off in the field?

Depends on how you look at it.

My understanding is that players have hidden injury ratings on body parts. So a guy with knee surgery could be more susceptible to future knee injuries. Doesn't mean it will happen, but that injury rating has been increased.

So, technically speaking, Sanchez saved himself a year of potential injury by playing off his legs on the field. What we're seeing with him, however, is that had he played on the field for Denver in 1988, he probably would have missed a lot of time. He was bound to get hurt again and all I did was push it to a later year.

I hate that Clay is going to make the playoffs because it's likely to completely overshadow my possible first trip as well. Inevitably even I will end up talking about Clay more than my own team.

Oh no, don't worry about that. Smear has already laid the groundwork to turn my playoff run into a "Bats collapse" story.

The magic had to run out sometime.
