Sending your star down to AAA after an injury does seem a little weird but it's very much a thing that happens in real life. I do think that in real life a team would try to trade a good-hitting catcher rather than shift him to be a mediocre 3B to fit his bat in the lineup.
I will say that I rarely see this in my games, in fact I can't recall a single time I've seen a player with C as his best position starting somewhere else. I just checked my current save, and Will Smith is reaching the end of his career as a primary catcher. He's filled in at 3B a few times in an emergency but never more than 40 innings in a season. I think it's best to treat this as the sort of rare occurrence that happens rarely in the game and rarely in real life.
