It might be even career-ending because he's a free agent after this season. Who would bid for a guy who was batting .142 in his final contract year and at age 37?

In OOTP, you would reply with one of those witty negative responses: "You say yes, I say no. Stop wasting my time because I have better things to do. You have to up your game to stay in this party." or something to that effect. Your assistant GM would be saying "I hate this trade. They are offering a vastly overpaid veteran!"
