March 31, 200521 yr A player (e.g. JP) gets put on the DL. Is there a minimum amount of time before he can be activated? Beginning of the Season, I assume the clock starts opening day. And DL designation becomes Roster important. Don't want Little to have a round-trip ticket for the same day! Thanks.
March 31, 200521 yr A player can be placed retroactively up to 10 days. So Pierre would be unavailable for 5 days. And IIRC any player called up must stay atleast 10 days in the majors before being sent down.

"Retroactivley" is effective only after the Season has started? True? Follow me... hold my hand! If we know J.P. is not ready for Opening Day, and may not be for at least a week or so... and we want to hold a Bench Spot open until he returns... When does he go on the DL and how long does he have to stay there? And, if Little is still on the Roster (pending the return of JP), does he have to have 10 games? rferry, I'm counting on you.
March 31, 200521 yr Yeah, the retroactive date can be prior to the start of the season. The Cubs and a few other teams may try to do that with one of their injured pitchers. I'm not 100% sure about the 10-day rule. I know that's the case for mid-season call-ups.
