History

Historical Context

MLB has used a disabled list since at least 1887, and after a 15-day standard was shortened to 10 days in 2017 (pitchers returned to 15 days in 2020), the list lets clubs replace injured players while preserving roster spots. Following that rule, Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo placed outfielder Ketel Marte on the 10-day injured list on August 17, 2024.
