There also aren't any situations where, for instance, you can choose whether to have a player have serious surgery in July and maybe be ready in time for next season if you're 10 games out in July or for him to stay playing for you at, say, a 10% reduction in talent during your pennant run and then have it in the off-season, when maybe they won't get back until July, which is what I believe people are asking about.

Yes..That is correct. In its current iteration the game does not allow you to do what I have said for longer term injuries- I understand it is there for short term injuries- and I am well aware of how the MLB DL functions.
