IRL most contracts with options automatically vest upon a release. This is to stop teams from releasing players with expensive options in order to avoid paying those options (basically, not playing fair - giving a player an option, then taking it away by releasing him). If they're gonna do that, it's gonna cost them.

So yeah, I would say the game is working exactly right.

What you need to do is bench the player so the option doesn't vest. It'll still cost you $7 mill but it's cheaper than $19 mill.
