You can just put those guys on the 60-day DL with a 4 year injury. Even though the DL is 60 days, that's just a minimum. They'll stay on the DL for as long as the injury takes to "heal". We do this in the modern roster set with Korean guys when they serve their two year military service and it works ok as a workaround. The only thing is that the game might sometimes make them much more injury prone or give them a setback that results in their staying "injured" even longer. But that can always be fixed in commish mode, in the editor.
