My problem is with the AI signing players in their early 30s to massive long term contracts. Modern GMs have finally learned this is a terrible idea. We need OOTP owners to learn this, too.

It's funny you say this. I was just telling my wife (who doesn't care about baseball but puts up with me) about how the AI in OOTP is trying to dump several of the big FA signings made IRL the season before.
Any time I shop around anyone remotely interesting I see Darvish, Hosmer and others.. sometimes Martinez.
It seems at least some of the AI GMs have learned.. or maybe they only don't like other people's messes.
In my current off-season there have been a few large questionable signings, but Harper has now lowered his sights by 10% and still seems to have no suitors. OTOH Kershaw -- despite arm troubles the previous year -- appears to be in a bidding war.
