Disabled list
DL is a sports acronym that stands for "Designated list," which is the list MLB players are put on when they are injured and unable to play. The acronym is only used by the MLB, whereas the NFL and NHL use the IR acronym. The list may be for players that out for 10 days (formerly 15 days before the 2017 season) or 60-days depending on the severity of the injury and amount of recovery time.
