They appeared to be veterans. Here's the timeline on how (I think) they ended up there, in the form of the offseason that follows the 1969 postseason:
1. Right after the game transitions to the offseason, I delete the expansion teams.
2. I run the sim into the new year and up until, say, opening day.
3. If a player appears in the historical transactions database - going to one of the expansion teams - he is sent to the phantom team. (But again, this did not happen with all of the expansion teams... didn't seem to happen with the Mets, for example.)

As soon as he retires the game will put him in designated for assignment for ATL along with the historical rookies.

What settings do you use (that you think might be causing this)? And why is a player who retired after 1988 IRL retiring after the 1985 in OOTP? (Perhaps that's the question you are asking by bringing this up, but just checking to see if you have any inkling.)
