In the real world, an MLB club brings its entire 40-man roster to its Major League spring training camp (along with some non-roster invitees from its minor league affiliates). During spring training the roster is slowly trimmed down to the 25-man opening day active roster by optioning players to the minors (along with the occasional release or outright assignment).
OOTP's requirement is meant to mimic MLB's approach. It also closes a loophole that under OOTP's previous method allowed a 40-man roster playersto be kept indefinitely in the minors.
