The whole pyramid system, the endless supply of new players, and the fact that there will always be opponents taking this aspect of the game to heart in any given league, demands this strategy of every player.

I think there is plenty of room for interesting decisions beyond which player has the highest overall rating. For example, do you take a high-powered right-handed slugger who murders lefties, or a high-contact switch hitter with elite defense? Which one is "better" for your team may depend on many factors, and involves trade-offs. The most successful teams will have a selection of players that complement each other, and fit the overall team strategy.
