Alex White is not on the 60-Day DL accoring to Espn.com and therefore cannot be placed on the DL.  I will wait to process the rest. What would you like to do?

Disregard the White move for now and process the rest.

White should go on the 15-day DL shortly (if he isn't already).  Would he be eligible then or is it only for players on the 60-day DL?

The DL is for players on the 60 day DL. The 15 day guys stay on the 40 man roster so there isn't really an advantage to placing them on the DL as their 25 man spot would be filled by a player on the 40 man. Players on the 60 day DL are removed from the 40 man while they are on the DL and reinstated to the 40 man when they come off the 60 day DL.

Good to know.  I was wondering how that worked!
