My apologies for the off-season confusion, I had just finished a season where I saw an overabundance of trades happen. The "very low" setting for the off-season is very interesting!
No problems. I hope my post didn't come across as harsh either. Sometimes those dry written words don't convey tone very well.

I do import from version to version and IIRC moving from 22 to 23 the first off season was approx. double the total trades of the second. I am looking forward to seeing what transpires as I move along in 24. As of today I'm about a week into my offseason with 2 AI trades. Both were prospect packages going for established MLB players. Looking them over, fair value for both clubs.

There's two things about my league that may temper the trades? First I'm not using the current MLB rosters, my game is fictional through attrition. Second, and maybe more important, is the teams in my game have money. I think that alleviates the issue of the AI wanting to shed contracts it just signed because that newly signed contract put the team in a bind (at least as far as the AI sees it). This is of course only speculation on my part.

Any way the OP asked about settings and what others are using. I linked the thread in case he hadn't seen it and gave him my settings. Usually these threads will go down the same path of discussion, and that's fine too. I've added what I see in my game, others will do the same. The OP can read the replies, continue to play his game, and maybe pull something out of it all that helps him out.
