Fair enough, but to some people it is a big deal. To me I'd love realistic contracts, its one of the little details that just immerses you more. In RTTS I've made perennial MVP Outfielder's who've been offered 15mill a year and it sortof irked me to think the best I can ever make is half of whats on offer in real-life.

The contracts size does not bother me as long as:
a. they are proportionate to the players ability
b. low contract numbers result in low budgets
-if budgets are as they were last year with these salaries...offseason will-be sign an all star team.

Why is SP Andrew Brackman on the roster for the Yankees? Not that im complaining, but I thought players had to appear in at least one Major League game to be included. I know he was called up at the end of September last year but he has yet to make his MLB debut. Anybody know?

finally not every singly player is signed to a 1 or 2 year contract in the first year of franchise, that always killed me.

my poor o's no love lol. and how mike is the top rated player on the team is beyond me. didn't even play the whole year. and how Guthrie is rated higher then Lee is also beyond me. but all is good you can change stats and go for the roster vault. still love the game been playing since 06.

Thank you for understanding my point =) My 1st baseman has signed a MAX 250mil 10 year deal before, but you can't even sign for A Rods contract let alone BEAT it...and A Rod isn't even the highest paid player for the Yankees?!?! It IS a big deal to me (I only really play RTTS but do so year round, and I am pissing my pants until 12:01 Monday night)
I think the other guy thought I was being disrespectful, but I LOVE this game, I was only saying, this small detail could be MUCH BETTER with VERY LITTLE EFFORT!

Right?! Lol. He's won the Rolaids relief award in my last 3 seasons since 2008!
