Then if you promise a guy he's a cleanup hitter and you hit him 8th every day, he gets mad... and the rest of the team gets mad, too, because you're breaking promises. And of course in turn a guy turning down a larger contract in order to play for someone who will give them a larger role on the team can/should be a thing you have to consider.

Yes, Yes, Yes...I have always thought this should have been implemented into OOTP. Hopefully the powers that be are listening/watching. Haven't really heard much from the guys lately. The next release is about 2 months away though.
