Dont allow yourself to get greedy and start poaching low level prospects from them because the AI doesnt value them correctly.

Turn the trading to Hard to make it a bit more realistic. I also tend to have them heavily favor prospects so they arent giving prospects away.

In general though the computer does a decent job. The biggest thing is if you get them to accept just make sure the trade makes sense for them to do and if you'd have reason to accept that trade if you were the computer.

For your specific example Id go from team to team and check their 1B depth. I am sure there is a 1st baseman on someones bench that is a good player. Or you may have to include a prospect to get a higher level 2nd baseman. Sounds like your 30 year old mid level pitcher may not have much value at this point.
