I beg to differ on this one. I don't have any hard evidence, merely anecdotal, but from everything I've seen, the AI doesn't care if you have 2 outfielders or 7. There is currently no way to tell a player that you're giving them the starting job during contract negotiations, so if a guy expects a spot in the starting lineup, as indicated on his profile page, he's going to assume that's the job you're offering him. Even if you have 6 other outfielders who all expect to start. You'll quickly have a morale issue on your hands, but I do not believe it affects a player signing - something that really should be added to the game for realism purposes.
