text: what is a "disqualified list" the washington nationals keep talking about on alfonso soriano? just want to know in baseball terms what is the disqualified list here it is taken from mlb.com and another source.  disqualified list - "a player who violates a player contract or reservation may be placed on this list. there is no minimum number of days the player must remain on the disqualified list before the player can be reinstated to the active list. a player on the disqualified list does not count against a club's active list limits or its reserve list limits."  becoming “disqualified” translates into soriano losing his salary for 2006, losing any credit for 2006 service time and his chance to become a free agent at the end of the season would also be lost as he would remain the property of the nationals.
