In my current Tigers GM sim I'm riding out the Baez contract and I ended up DFA'ing E-Rod with a year and a half left on his contract and ate the dollars. Cabrera retired after the 2023 season. The farm system is terrible, which is why I chose to ride out the contracts but E-Rod got in the way of some development of others with his half-star ratings. I considered wiping out the minors personnel as recommended above but that seemed pretty unrealistic and I was trying to manage costs somewhat. So I fired a handful of coaches in the system and restructured what I could until their contracts got closer to running out.

Also be sure "cannot be fired" is checked. At least for the first 3-4 years. Otherwise you won't make it two seasons.
