Contract renewal bug with 4.2b

Found this one accidentally...

Going to resign a younger pitcher to a contract extention.. He makes currently 2.5mil a year, and was asking for 4.2mil for 3 years.

I went to the pitching rotation screen, then clicked on salary info just to see what the other pitchers were making as a reference. I then left clicked on his name in that screen to bring up the player window. Then clicked on the offer extention button.

I first offered 3.2 mil for 3 years, He said not enough. I then offered 3.8mil for 3 years, he said needs more money I then offered 4.3mil for 3 years and he turned it down wanting more money again. I thought maybe I remembered what he wanted wrong so then right clicked out of that screen. I then went back into the offer extention button screen and his new desire was: Your offers make me sick, I'm going elsewhere.

Thats fine, I blew the negotiation.. so I backed all the way out and went to the roster screen (listing the upcoming free agents there.) I right clicked on this pitcher in that screen (which instantly takes you to the offer extention screen) and suddenly he was back to his 4.2mil for 3 year demand again. Just for kicks I offered it to him and he accepted it.

So it seems like a bug to me, feels like the one screen doesnt remember the events from the other screen?
