I don't know that we found solid evidence for a 60-Day minor league DL. If the minor league CPU was placing the player on the 60-Day DL, it could be assumed to be the major league version with allows the benefit of freeing up a 40 man roster spot. It is normal for this to accrue service time.

However, it could be deemed a bug for the minor league CPU to use the 60-Day Major League DL. It should use the minor league DL in all cases, since there is no detriment to putting the same player on the 7-Day or 15-Day minor league DL and letting him sit for 60+ days.

However, I believe that the game will not then allow the human manager to transfer this player to the 60-Day major league DL if they need to open up the 40-man slot, which causes an issue in itself. There is no transfer option to allow the human manager to do this.
