But the counter to that is that the player (let's say decent RP asking 2M for a 1-year deal for the sake of argument) WILL sign a 2-year 20M deal, or WILL sign a 3-year 30M annual. These escalations are embedded somewhere. I just signed my top pitcher to 6Y @ 97M after he continually refused anything longer than 1Y... So the mechanic is ultimately there to work beyond "1st choice" - I just want it a bit more transparent (which would be realistic) to have what that value needs to be... It's a place to start negotiations - which is what contracts and salaries are all about, and IMO are the weakest part of this sim.
I get that nothing is going to change for little-old-me... It just means that this game isn't perfect, for me.
