Come on, guys. I mean, I understand Stanton is coming off of an injury but in what alternate universe would the Yankees EVER negotiate an offer like this with any team, let alone the Red Sox?
I believe in policing myself in regards to the trade market in the single player game, but this is a bit over the top.

They think his contract is underwater for value, and thus they're willing to trade him for anything to get rid of the contract.
Not really that unrealistic (other than the Red Sox part, which since we don't have rivalries yet, we can't control). Teams do this all the time, if they can.
The real life Padres would happily trade Wil Myers for a bucket of balls right now and throw 30-40 mil into the deal too if you asked nicely.
