History

Historical Context

Since the 1960s the Yankees have used the ten-day disabled list—added alongside 15-, 21- and 30-day options in 1966—to free a roster spot for replacements. The list, renamed the injured list before the 2019 season and restored to ten days for position players in 2017, lets managers like Aaron Boone call up prospects such as Anthony Volpe, echoing earlier roster maneuvers.
