First of all, most salary attribution prices are unreasonable. Took Shin-Soo Choo for example, in this roster file, he only has one good preformance in 2008 but his first salary attribution price exceed 9M. It doesn't make sense.

Secondly, most players who overall ability reach 3 stars in FA market quote 10M at least no matter how old are they or whether they are already on declination or not. Compared with 2008 roster file which you made, 2008 roster file is better in this part than that of 2009.
I noticed that as well about arbitration, I'll give it a look. Not sure what would be causing that.

The salaries aren't as big of a problem as it seems. Although a lot of the free agents will make high demands, they almost often end up signing under that. The only reason I made them that high was to make the ending salaries signed for a bit more realistic, otherwise you have guys like Dempster, etc. signing for only 5-6M.
