Besides, I have found that super star FA are never worth it except maybe starting pitchers especially with the games injury rate. You are 100x better off saving for the draft and/or offering extensions to current player or picking up good left over FA's at spring training discounts to have a deep chart. This appears to be true in real life as well.
That said, if your teams have a ton of money and they are still not spending then that is a different issue altogether. I have never seen this though.

Well one reason I bring this up is because if I don't sign some expensive contracts I will have so much excess money to spend (100mil+) that it just seems too easy to play since I'll be able to spend monstrous amounts of money on free agents each year. I need to tell myself to stop offering team friendly contracts to my young superstars because I end up accumulating so much money, especially when I have a long history of winning (so I get a big budget, and market size/ fan loyalty increase).
