No disrespect intended but this is not George Brett and won't act like him.

Player personalities are randomly generated so the dissatisfaction with his role is co-incidence. What are his personality ratings like?

You didn't say if you are using recalc or not. I assume you are. Check his power rating against the top HR hitters and against league totals. In a low HR environment he may be a power hitter.

If not using recalc, check his power talent (potential). The development curve may be making him into a power hitter. If so he will want to bat cleanup.

That being said the personality quirks and levels of dissatisfaction are a little weird or perhaps simplistic. I had a 40+ HR guy who wanted to lead off. That wasn't going to happen on my team. What is your manager level/rating in the game? Perhaps you are getting a more severe reaction than a 30+ season guy.

This, and the outragous salary demands in the early years, are the things that bother me the most about this game. I have done research and found the answers as to why free agency and high salaries are enabled the way they are in this simm, but I failed to find any thread or discussion dealing with the player not being happy in his role.
Do you not have option years, and arbitration on? Not sure what year you are in but arbitration came in in 1972. That should limit salaries.
