With today's modern medicine career ending injuries are pretty much a thing of the past. Granted it's your league/time period so to each their own.
Yeah, unless a guy actually DID suffer a career ending injury in real life (think Dravekey), I change career enders to 365 day injuries.

One of my teams, the Kentucky Stallions, had a similar problem this spring - signed Lance Berkman to a multi-year, big dollar deal and he suffered a career ender. They also lost their starting SS for 6 months and Roger Clemens for 3 months. Rough spring!
