I don’t fully disagree with what @downsr30 is saying, but Ryan and Johnson are really more of outliers. The overall trend of injuries does have to do some with throwing as hard as guys are now, but it’s likely more because they are starting at such a young age, playing all year around, throwing harder, but also throwing more breaking and off speed pitches. Throwing hard is just one of the multiple reasons why there are so many injuries anymore. Flyby I dont disagree with you completely Mlb1225 but there will always be outliers and maybe DeGrom is one.
