Injury Rating Cost

Injury Rating Cost

Postby daddybrucem » Mon Nov 14, 2011 4:33 am

Can someone tell me how much additional salary is added for a player with a 0 injury rating. As everyone knows, Injuries can cause a key player to miss 20-30 games, or more. Injuries are unknown variable that might be worth avoiding, depending on the additional cost.

No one knows for sure, but my guess is it's around a 10% premium, except of course for Horace Clark and Jake Wood.

There is not technically any "premium" for players with 0 injury. The pricing model assumes everyone plays 100% and then discounts from there, replacing the injury PA's with a replacement level player. Under this approach better cards are discounted more heavily because the gap between their output and the replacement level player is greater.

That is why a player like Horace Clark, doesn't have any premium for his 0 injury because his card isn't any better than a replacement level player.
