I'm in the same boat right now with the most popular player on my team. My closer, who has been with big league team for 12 years, just backed away from contract talks. He's strong as an ox and never gets hurt and has lead the league in saves the last 6 or 7 years, posting ERA's under 2 in 4 of the last 5 years.
I want to keep him, but he won't budge from a 5 year contract and he's 37 years old. I suppose I will just wait until Free Agency, and when no one else offers him 5 years, he may come around. I play each game (and have 18 seasons under my belt starting with OOTP9), and I have become really attached to him, but he's being unreasonable and forcing my hand.
