I've actually found it EASIER to get a good number of prospects for solid veterans in 4.1. Maybe I'm just making better offers than I normally do, but in trading guys like Manny Ramirez, Juan Gonzalez, Javier Vasquez, and Vladimir Guerrero in my recent career league I've always gotten great value for them. In fact, in some cases I've traded 3-4 good veterans for 2 young superstars and 3 great prospects.

Vladdy, Vasquez, and two good veterans netted me Beckett, Pujols, and 3 great prospects in 2004 IIRC. Anyway, I think the trick is finding out which players cause the AI to bust a nut. Some players that look good to you aren't always as enticing to the AI.
