Both issues should be fixed.
This is a bit different but it seems to me the AI won't (or can't?) protect (or pick) injured prospects from the rule 5 draft. I've picked up two 4-star potential guys in back to back years who were close to MLB ready and able to legitimately make my 25-man and contribute (one as a platoon OF and one as a swingman). Both were healthy in time for spring training.
