Temporary players; reserve player in the starting lineup

I've started three different historical replay games with different years of Negro Leagues: 1920, 1921, 1941. In all of them, the AI uses temporary players ("Jim Unknown") as substitutes quite often, even when there are enough real players available on the active roster and in the lineups and depth charts.

Also, I found one player (Jim Brown, 1920 Chicago American Giants) somehow in the starting lineup while he was on the reserve roster. The active roster already had two healthy catchers. The box scores recorded Brown batting more than 600 times per game. The stats on his player card appeared to be normal.
