A player can be placed on the Disqualified List if he violates the terms of his contract (for example, player signs a contract using a false name and/or DOB, or player signs a contract with another professional baseball team without permission of an MLB club while still under contract with that MLB organization, or player circumvents a drug test, or player refuses to undergo an examination by a physician as directed by the club, or player refuses to render services to the club).
A player can be placed on the Disqualified List only with the approval of the MLB Commissioner.
A player on the Disqualified List does not count against the club's Active List or Reserve List, and he does not accrue service time or get paid while on the list.
An MLB player on the Disqualified List cannot be reinstated during the period of time extending from August 1st through October 31st and a minor league player on the Disqualified List cannot be reinstated during the period of time extending from August 1st through the conclusion of his club's season (including post-season) without the approval of the MLB Commissioner.
A player reinstated from the Disqualified List must be added back to his club's Reserve List within 30 days if he is reinstated prior to the conclusion the season, or by Opening Day if the player is reinstated during the off-season.
If an MLB player on the Disqualified List is reinstated during th MLB regular season, he may consent to a "conditioning" assignment (with or without pay - TBD) with a minor league affiliate of his club for up to 30 days prior to being reinstated to the MLB Reserve List.
NOTE: A player receives MLB meal money and other benefits associated with being an MLB player while on a minor league "conditioning" assignment.
If a player is assigned to another club after reinstatement he must be placed on that club's Reserve List immediately.

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.

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.
