It seems to me that there's a glitch in the game re: players who get dropped while they are injured. You can't see how many games the guys are hurt for when you check the cards, which I can almost understand as a nice twist. But I just dropped Nick Johnson because he has a long injury at the end of a season for me, and decided to pick up an injured Berkman. He has that ugly red I next to his name, but I decided to risk it. Now he's in my lineup, the I is next to his name, but I still can't see how many games he's out for...

the glitch is the [color=red:9bf711465e]I[/color:9bf711465e] doesn't go away. Check the injury page, if it isn't listed there, he will play. Usually if it doesn't say how long he is out, it means he isn't anymore.

In addition, look at the transaction page and see what date he was dropped, then look at that team's box scores for the previous noght and you can see how many games he went down for and how many games have been played since then. A little simple math and you got the date he was eligible to start playing again. :)
