Top prospects available for mediocre veterans when you shop the veteran for a trade

As much as I would enjoy the Royals being able to trade Freddy Fermin (28 yo., 1B, 45 rating) for Garrett Mitchell (24 yo., CF, 60 potential Brewers MLB ready #5 prospect), and several different players for Oneil Cruz (24 yo., SS, 65 potential Pirates prospect that disappointed as a rookie but hasn't been abandoned as a potential star), there seems to be something out of balance with highly rated prospects who disappointed in limited time in the majors being available for mediocre veterans. This is on 100% scouting accuracy. I left the veteran/prospect balance at default and only reduced the trading difficulty slider 2 clicks to open things up. I checked at normal trade difficulty setting and those players were still available. This only happens when using the shop a player feature, the trade engine is still similarly difficult to how it has been.
