The First Braves Commandment - Thou shalt not speak ill of #10
The Second Braves Commandment - Thou shalt not mention Hooters Restaurant...ever
Seriously, though, I haven't noticed this. I seem to have the opposite problem, which is to say that I have older (but still high performing) players who want to retire a few years before they should. What's more is I have veterans who I've just given relatively large contracts to who retire one season into the deal. What's up with that? You would think that if they accepted a five year deal, they'd stick around for a while...
