In my OOTP 13 franchise which I played through 2024 I noticed this quite a bit. CPU teams would plug in holes in their rotation with guys who had 35 or 45 stamina (on a scale of 100).

I haven't played enough of 14 to know if it's been different.

As a strategy, I used it quite often. If I had a team with a small budget, it's a way to get SP innings cheap. There's a larger bounty of middle relievers available in the draft and often in free agency, which means you can get SP innings cheaper.

It's obviously not as common in real life as in the game, so you kind of have to set your house rules in terms of how much you want to exploit it, if at all.
