I haven't installed OOTP20 yet, but I felt OOTP19 made progress in this regard when compared to
how it used to be. It appears that the AI will first try to fill a backup slot with a player with a rating at the position, and if it doesn't find one, it'll insert a player who is capable of learning the position (e.g. a shortstop being put at second base). Backup slots will only remain blank if there's no one capable of playing the position (either currently or potentially), which is more of a roster construction issue.
In the past, the AI didn't seem capable of recognizing who was capable of learning a position and who wasn't when selecting backups, so this was a positive development in OOTP19.
