Sent you a PM Russell. Also, may want to look at this thread/post (here)
For everyone else (and please, correct me if im wrong) here is what was said (summed up). You ahve your 25 man roster (MLB) and your 40 man roster (that are "available" to your MLB roster). When a player gets injured and is put on the DL, you can bring a player up to replace him. When putting someone on the 60 day DL (in real life) they do not count against the 40 man roster. In The Show, anyone on the DL (15 day, 60 day etc) DOES count against the 40 man. So if, hypothetically, you injure 6 position players on your roster, you may have a ahrd time fielding a lineup as you cant put someone on the 60 day DL and sign a replacement (as in the real MLB).
Make sense?

Good explanation. The only thing I would add is that it affects more than just the 40 man roster, because if a minor leaguer goes on the 60 day, you can't sign a free agent to replace them. I've had my AA team forced to play with 21 players because there is no way to replace them, so putting a player on the DL in AA basically serves no purpose, because you can't replace them.
