Rehab Assignment Players "Disappear"

This is like 50% my fault, 50% the game - but I feel it should be addressed.

I have roster limits (30 players) in my higher minor leagues (AAA & AA). My AAA team was at the limit, and I had two players eligible to come off the major league IL. Instead of just activating them, I sent them to AAA on a rehab assignment. This is where it gets weird.

I got the normal Rehab Assignment message, but nothing telling me that the roster at AAA would be illegal. I simmed another 10 days, then went to check on my rehabbers, and they were basically gone. I couldn't find them anyplace on the AAA roster no matter what screen I looked at, and they weren't playing at all.

Eventually, I went into my Transaction Log, found when I assigned them to Rehab and clicked on their name. It took me to their player page and had them listed as being on the AAA team, but with no stats. I was able to activate them from there, and further testing proved that the issue was indeed because my AAA team was full.

So, my bad for sending rehabbers out to an already-full team. But, I feel like there should be some sort of message or warning that doesn't allow that, or stops the seem for an illegal roster as it does in other situations with too many players.

The rehab players should not be counting against the roster limit. Pretty sure they don't IRL and have not in OOTP in previous versions. Maybe you've found a bug?
