FOR BASEBALL EXPERTS : Why do teams back-date injuries for players to go on the disabled list?
I have a pretty good comprehension about baseball, but there’s one thing I don’t understand. You often hear teams put a player on the disabled list (that’s easy to understand), but then they back date the injury (which in baseball, they have the ability to back date 5 days). Why would they do that? Is it for financial reasons? I mean, during that period of time, the team was essentially short one player anyways. What are the benefits for a back date?
Teams can put players on a 15 or a 60 day disabled list…there used to be a 21 day list, but they don’t have that anymore…once a player is placed in the DL, he must stay there for the duration, even if he recovers enough to play again prior to the end of that period of time…
Players on the 15 day list can not be replaced, the team has to play with a roster that’s a man short… if a player goes on the 60 day list, he can be replaced during that time.
Sometimes a team will keep an injured player on the roster but list him as day to day, meaning the medical staff is unable to determine when the player will be ready to play again…. the reason for listing him as day-to-day is because they don’t want to lose the player for two weeks (by placing him on the DL) if it turns out he’s only slightly hurt.
Teams can put players on the DL retroactive to the last day he played.
There are penalties involved if a team fails to accurately disclose the nature of a player’s injuries. Placing someone on the DL retroactively apparently allows a team not to be penalized (other than the disadvantage of playing with a reduced roster) for listing the player as day to day during the time they spend determining the nature of the injury.
For example, if a guy is hurt, and they spend a week trying to figure out just how bad the injury is, they might list him as day to day during that time (since they don’t want to automatically lose him for two weeks by placing him on the DL)… then, after let’s say 10 days, they finally figure, ‘hey, he’ll be ready to go in about a week’, then they can retroactively place the guy on the 15 day DL, have him back in a week, and there’s no penalty, other than playing with a reduced roster until the retroactive 15 days is up.
