I understand and absolutely respect you and your experience with this game. You're a veteran pro and I'm not questioning you. But, I'm at 1242 hours of constant simming this year and 1716 hours on the last version. I am intimately aware of the trade logic. The vast majority of my active play is trading. Tweaking, adding a player here, removing checking to see what works. What is happening right now is new and different. Draft-pick trading logic just got borked and is the canary in the coal mine for this. On Average/Neutral it shouldn't take a star player to pick up an absolute garbage relief pitcher from all teams. It also shouldn't take a 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round pick to acquire a 10th round draft pick. The last time I saw something this weird was when you had Generate International Amateur Free Agents off and it caused the International Complex to disappear.

I'm disabled and spend about 6 hours a day playing this game (more like 12 hours a day half of the week when my pain levels are low enough). I really, truly believe there is something weird going on right now that just popped up recently.
