Then what am I missing in setting up a roster? Where I notice the AI doesn't set up a maximum roster correctly, is if there is an injury and they go on the 7-day DL. They won't actually call up another player, and just wait for the other player to get back from the DL. It makes the idea of a minor league DL meaningless.
I fired up a league, did the AI roster management, of a 25 man roster in AAA, the AI only put 24 players on it. There was another guy coming back in a couple weeks. If I got rid of the players on the DL, then they would move someone up to fill the 25 man. So it's like the minor league DL is more or less cosmetic in how rosters get managed---otherwise there would be a AA callup or minor league FA signing.
