What constitutes the dreaded label "injury prone"

#1 Post by CubFan »

When I think of the poster child for injury prone players I look no further than Buxton. He epitomizes my definition of a player who habitually has soft tissue injuries. I tend to not knock players for injuries such as broken bones. Todd....how do you define "injury prone"? Would you label Judge and Brandon Lowe with this label? Who else would you give this dreaded label too?

There is no definition obviously. I'm more likely to use it for repeated soft tissue stuff than flukes, but it's a completely subjective designation.
