It also assumes that you have the budget to spend that money. Again, you can be Commissioner Mode and cheat, but I don't find any fun in rigging things that much in my favor.

Sometimes I can barely get the ai to give me a prospect with bench potential at best other times i can get some 5 star bats or pitchers with 4+ years of arbitration. If a player has declined then usually I get lucky if i'm able to get some type of minor leaguer with no contract, if i trade a guy who is still in his prime I can get some top notch young talent. I was able to trade a 4.5 star starting pitcher for a 5 star 2b with only 2 years of mlb experience. The 4.5 star pitcher had 7 years at 37 million left and was 32 so I dunno if the ai needs to be tweaked or not. I just know when I clicked shop for a trade with him I was stunned to see that type of offer. I was just looking to dump for any minor league contract.
