MiLB deals w MLB guarantee executing without promotion

Hi guys, has anyone else experienced this?

We are a new online league of 26 teams finishing our first preseason. The gamelog is dated April 1, 2020, our opening day.

A bunch of us have signed players to MILB contracts with x amount paid if promoted to MLB within 30 days, and otherwise released.

It appears, whether promoted or not, all these contracted have exercised.

For example, I signed Miguel Cabrera to one of these MILB30 deals. I used him on my ST roster. I waited until rosters expanded to set him into the squad. Today, he is unoptionable because "Miguel Cabrera has an MLB contract and must be placed on the 40-man roster."

I also signed Rex Brothers to an MILB30. He was sent straight to AAA, (I have AI managing milb promtion and demotion on my team) and yet his player profile already reads MLB Contract.

Both players appear on my salaries balance sheet as liabilities respective to the offer value.

Other players in the league are experiencing the exact same issue, including with players that were never invited to the spring training roster.

These contract executions do not show up in any of our transaction logs, either. I don't know if they would, I would expect it to say the contract has been purchased or something along those lines.

We are new to the online format, and some of us new to OOTP at all, so please be gentle Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks folks!
