    Transactions Notes:  Major League transactions were last updated for the 2007 season. The data should not be considered as complete, especially at the minor league level. The best way to view the career of a player is through his statistics.

    Disabled List Notes:  The accumulation of disabled list data started in 2001. Though most DL visits are accounted for during this time, the injury description and activation date are not always available.
