How many games has Crochet played since 2021? Skuball missed half the season in 2023 and about 1/3 of the season in 2022.

Injuries occur far more often than you are letting on. In today's game, players push their body more physically than previous generations did, in terms of athletic ability. And as medical knowledge and technology has gotten much better, and we don't see guys play through the same sort of semi-minor injuries that they used to 30+ years ago (concussions, tweaked knees, cracked ribs, etc).

Also the % of games played is somewhat misleading. In that span he's had 2 signifigant injuries that killed a lot of his playing time across 4 seasons. I wouldn't call him some injury prone player like JD Drew was. Sure, he's overly dramatic when he gets HBP, but outside of those 2 big injuries he's not missing a lot of time.
