Because these pitchers are killing themselves by pitching max effort every time. Look at degrom, throwing 100 pitches with triple digits heat every fifth day is not good for the body, hell pitching itself isn't good but these players are pushing it to the limit, no wonder why they only last like 5 innings and get hurt all the time, they just go full throttle.

Then these old heads bitch and moan how pitchers these days are wimps that can only last 5 innings knowing damn well that most pitchers back then threw in the high 80s/low 90s and that 95 was considered exceptional and with bullpens back then being absolutely shit.
