Disabled Lists

OOTP has two disabled lists that teams can use to help manage their rosters when players on the active or secondary rosters suffer injuries: the 15-day disabled list and the 60-day disabled list. Disabled lists are primarily for effective management of the active and secondary rosters, but they can be used even in leagues without affiliated minor leagues.

15-Day Disabled List

Players placed on the 15-day disabled list remain on the team's secondary roster.

60-Day Disabled List

Players placed on the 60-day disabled list are removed from the team's secondary roster, opening up a slot for a replacement player.

The disabled lists are visible on the Disabled List sub-screen of the Transaction page.

Assigning Players to the Disabled List

There are two ways to place a player on the disabled list:

1. On the Disabled List sub-screen of the Transaction page, drag a player from the active or secondary roster to the disabled list.
2. Right-click any injured player and select Transaction | Place on Disabled List.

As soon as you place a player on the disabled list, you will be prompted to choose one of the two disabled lists.

Differences between OOTP and Real World

There are several differences between disabled lists in OOTP and disabled lists in the real world:

• In OOTP, you cannot make retroactive assignments to the disabled list.
• In the real world, disabled list assignments end at the end of the season. In OOTP, a player can remain on the disabled list past the end of the season.
