This is already primitively modeled in the "random talent change" feature. Also Cal Ripken Jr. would like to talk to you about "being too big to be a SS".

All I do is try to spend my excess money in scouting or hiring the best coaches. I find it more rewarding focusing on other aspects such as drafting the right players, properly developing them, or making quality trades. These aspects don't involve money. It involves thinking. So, I'm always more interested to see if the game finds ways to improve these aspects such as improving the player developmental model, injury model, aging model, personality affects, etc. It is these type of features that make me think rather than just check if I have the money or not.

Well it's a good thing a (I'm going to guess fairly large) portion of the community has no interest in online play. Otherwise the "From an online perspective" argument would hold some water. Not every feature is intended for every style of gameplay though.
