Since a possible average of 13% of Major League players go on the disabled list, it would appear that one everyday positional player would, at sometime, be on the disabled list. Two things come to mind when handicapping any team's long-term chances of overcoming key injuries:
1. How strong are the bench players compared to other teams in their (A) Division and (B) League
2. How strong are their farm clubs, especially when it comes to pitching staffs, for possible late season bolstering.....In the postseason, it always comes down to the strongest pitching staffs for ultimate chances of success.
