I could hire a guy who dresses like Bozo the Clown and sprays players with a seltzer bottle when they strike out if I like, and he has to put up with it for 3 more years. My point is that I think it's a minor oversight on the part of the dev team that the game does not seem to have a check for players under club control when it decides whether the player is willing to negotiate or not and hopefully it's a small thing they can fix in a patch.
I agree this game is awesome and the fact that I'm on here nit picking a tiny flaw is proof of how great it is.

when any human feels unappreciated by their employers they are capable of all sorts of irrational behaviour.
i'd make them run through as many hoops as possible, for one, out of spite. if it costs them more in fees and lawyers, that's the route i'd go. bcause this system is completely one-sided and just because their are rules doens't make them fair. it clearly pays them less than their value and you can measure that.. it's not qualatative reasoning.
their coutnerparts get paid less becaue they have no bargaining power... so they get paid less... it's a system of payroll control.
some good comes from it.. but a bit too extremem imo.. just like the the nfl put restrictions on draft pick salaries so that vets would get a larger share of the whole. some in baseball.. but they don't have the same dynamics.. they have no Cap that all teams must spend with ing X% of it each year etc etc...
on the other hand, their money is guaranteed which is bettter than the nfl... so you sacrifice a bit of money for security.. . it likely saves baseball owners a ton more money than their nfl counterparts, though.
and to the other post a couple above: of cours e you can, just liek you will liekly receive a few opinions in return. how's being the fascist, lol? may we respond to what is said? LoL. in ootp i believe what you say is true.. but in real life i know their are other concerns than just money. it starts to be a symbol of unhappiness etc... you do what you can within the system to show your distaste. it's the only form of protest they'd have.
