I just had this happen. I just traded my top shortstop (sort of a Jose Reyes/NY Mets situation -- last year of his contract, can't afford to re-sign him) for another team's very good pitching prospect. The other GM initially thought about it and came back asking for (among other possibilities) one of my major league outfielders. I didn't want to part with the specific outfielder he asked for, so I tried the trade again with a different outfielder. The other team's GM had to think about it again, and it came back accepted. One of the more satisfying trade experiences I've had in OOTP.
