I'm not sure if they can put him on the DL retroactively because of the suspension. It'll probably be 10 games starting tomorrow.
The organization played it well, though. Let him serve the suspension while staying behind in Florida and now he can go on the DL and head out for some rehab stints and enter the lineup right away. As opposed to rehabbing, then sitting for five games.
