Minor League Rosters

Rule 5 Draft 
Minor League Free-Agents

Temporarily Inactive List (Minor Leagues Only)

The Temporarily Inactive List is for minor league players only.

It is essentially an in-season excused Leave of Absence, and it is used for Paternity Leave, Bereavement Leave, and Family Medical Emergency Leave, as well as when a player is delayed reporting to a new club, or is attending college, or is incarcerated, or has returned home for personal reasons. Only minor league players (including players on Optional Assignment to the minors) can be placed on this list.

A player on the Development List counts against the in-season minor league 180-man Domestic Reserve List or 70-man International Reserve List (or MLB 40-man roster if the player is on Optional Assignment), but he does not count against the minor league club's Active List roster. 
NOTE: If the Domestic or International Reserve List is full, a player who ordinarily would have been placed on the Temporarily Inactive List can be placed on the Restricted List instead, but placing a player on the Restricted List does require the approval of the MLB Commissioner).

A player cannot be placed on the Temporarily Inactive List any earlier than the first day of his minor league club's regular season, the player must remain on the Temporarily Inactive List for at least three days, and a player on the Temporarily Inactive List must be reinstated no later than the day after the conclusion of his club's season.

A player normally is not paid while on the Temporarily Inactive List (club option).

    morel DH, tauchman CF, masterboney 3rd

    imagine a world where a manager decides to put morel at 3rd and canario DH.  crazy, huh?

    masterboney had 3 hits yesterday so we're stuck with him again today and probably for a chunk of what's left.

    canario had a double and grand slam a couple games ago and he's riding pine again.

    madrigal's hamstring strain is a grade 2 strain.  we probably won't see him anymore this season or post-season (if applicable) unless the team goes deep.

    well that took all of 15 minutes to not be fun anymore.

    WHO ORDERED THE GRAND SLAM?  WHAT THE F IS UP DENNYS???

    Sucks for Steele, sucks for the Cubs. Hopefully the Cubs get right tomorrow and take the series. 
     

    Edit: and if they choose to get right tonight instead and take the series, even better!

    well, working his 4th game in 5 days seems to have been a bad idea.

    make that 6 singles in a row.  cuas is coming in with men on 1st/2nd...ross loves this dude with men on.

    steele has gone from potential CY winner to "had a great season" in 2 starts.

    steele giving up 5 straight singles and tommy h on the phone with the bullpen as if the pen is ready to put in 5-6 innings of quality work.

    Carter Trice taking some lumps but I’m weirdly optimistic about that conversion. 20 YO 3 year starter in college when drafted, gets the ball in the air with power and took walks, started at 6 diff spots (mostly 2B/OF)

    morel DH, tauchman CF, and hopefully the last masterboney start at 3rd we'll ever see...i'll take wisdom's potential power over these singles-hitting ceiling hitters dross keeps marching out there because of a marginally better glove.
