Are the lengths of injuries determined in the same way that the dice and card game determines them? By this I mean is the average length of injury maybe 2 or 3 games like in the dice game? Are the lengths of injury seemingly different for different players? Thanks for the help.

Players with 600 or more plate appearences (AB's + walks) have a max 3 game injury. Those with less than 600 PA's have a max 15 game injury. Those with 700+ PA's have a max injury to last till the end of game.

Thanks... so with the players under 600 PAs, are the injuries determined at the same rate as in the card and dice game...20 chances total (4 chances miss 0 games, 4 chances miss 1 game, 1 chance miss 15 games, etc.)???

The number is actually 680, not 700, for a rest-of-game injury limit.

Yes, Maligned, 1/20 15 game chance, 1/20 10 game chance, etc.
