Missing Player in Historical Replay

I've been playing my beloved BoSox with actual starting lineups and historical transactions starting with the 1950 season and currently in June of 1952. Recently I started comparing my daily results with those shown in Baseball Almanac and have found the following anomaly:
In the "real life" game played by Boston on June 14, 1942, the almanac indicates that Sid Hudson pitched in relief of Mel Parnell. Although there were recent transactions between the BoSox and both the Tigers and the Senators, Hudson never made it to my roster. When I checked in historical transactions for the league it indicated a transaction with Hudson "already retired." According to the almanac he didn't retire until 1954. Can I manually place him on my roster in this type of replay?
