What's the best way for me to handle this? I need the 40-man slot for someone else but I don't want to lose injured guy. Is there a way out of this?
How do they handle this in IRL baseball?

In OOTP that I've found - ANY player who gets put on the 60 day IR is automatically removed from the 40 man roster, regardless what level of minors they are in.
I don't know of any "switch" in the settings that lets you change that.
IRL MLB baseball - I think you also have to remove (LTIR) the player from your 40 man roster too. Its likely a contractual thing to keep the Jeffry Loria's from cheaping out on paying 40 players... Oh Wait.. he's gone...
