Actualy its not ridiculous and it kind of makes sence for a lot of reasons. Think about this. The various kingdoms that are allied with the wolrd goverment have strong fighters like for example Alabasta has Chaka and Pell. So it couldbe possible that there are countries with incredibly strong fighters  on a strength level of an admiral that are in a sort of colaboration program with the marines but are not fully incorporated in them. Maybe they have special cooperation missins toogether. This would even present an excuse for them not being present during the battle at marineford because they are technivaly not a part of the marines.

Plus i have the feeling that Akainu and Fujitora know each other and Akainu may have been fully aware of his strength and when there was consideration for the post he may have recomended him. Same story with green bull.
