I don't think this is a bug. This is much the way it is in real life. Compare Chris Hammond and Roberto Hernandez. With a 0.95 ERA, Hammond became just the third pitcher since 1900 to produce a sub-1.00 ERA with 70-plus innings. Hammond made $450,000 last year. Hernandez, on the other hand, as a closer, saved only 26 games, blowing 8 of them, and his salary was $6,000,000. Same with position players:

Avg Salaries by Position in 2002-
C $3,645,329;

1B $5,701,654;

2B $3,189,423;

3B $3,339,078;

SS $4,182,703;

OF $3,992,607;

SP $3,315,341;

RP $1,516,079;

DH $6,186,224
