Minor league injuries dwarf major league ones, of course, because of the sheer number of minor leaguers. But why do the Yankees, Mets, and Orioles rise to the top no matter how you slide the data? @brittghiroli.bsky.social and I investigated: www.nytimes.com/athletic/733...
Biggest SP Stuff+ surgers (Last 30 vs April) below.
