Spring Training Question - Page 2

If the players in question are top prospects, the only way that they would be on the 40-man roster is if they have a major league contract. And if this is correct, then the AI will automatically place that player on the major league roster for Spring Training games.
I have made the mistake of offering a major league contract to a draft choice to get him to sign, and it effectively burned his options when he was not ready but attended spring training.

Nowhere in the post you quoted was a CPU mentioned. Though now that I'm thinking about it, that is probably how Oakland works.
