April 27, 20223 yr Does everybody think that the universal increase in guys on the IL is going to be a thing going forward or is it more due to three abnormal seasons due to COVID/lockout? The reason I ask is that going forward, it might be worth discussing increasing the 40-man roster to 41 or 42. Some teams literally don't have live bodies to bring up, especially since some 40 spots go to guys that are nowhere near ready for MLB but had to be protected from Rule 5.

Some teams literally don't have live bodies to bring up, especially since some 40 spots go to guys that are nowhere near ready for MLB but had to be protected from Rule 5. The last three years are just begging for disaster when it comes to the health of players, and I think if we get back to "normal" years, we should see those effects fade away as a larger trend.

I think guys were still dealing with the after effects of very abnormal 2020 last season, and the post lockout ramp up just compounded the issues.

I think the off season training programs is a variable as well. The increased power type training Ala Kopech is becoming the norm and I don't think the subsequent decreased flexibility is being addressed. Baseball is one sports that has very quick full range motions that add a unique stress to tissues. As with anything player unique body types and genetics allow some to tolerate better than others. However overall I think it could be an issue.

April 30, 20223 yr X-rays on Vaughn’s right hand came back negative. Doubtless TLR will be sitting him, though, if there even is a game. Edited April 30, 20223 yr by caulfield12
