One more question as I get into the game. Thanks for indulging me.

I bought this game primarily to manage, but there are things I want to control in-game such as major and minor league callups, so I selected "Manager and GM" to play.

I don't want to have to search for free agents and what not, so I delegated that responsibility to my assistant, but now I see he has signed Jorge Cantu to a major league contract. Since I've got this guy named Mauer sucking up $23 million of payroll already playing there, Cantu is just taking up a spot on my 40-man and I have to waive him before I can send him to AAA and make major league money.

Which leads me to my question: is there a way to "sign off" on a FA contract and stop an AI signing that defies common sense, or do I have to bite the bullet and do all the FA negotiations myself?
