One thing I have found in OOTP2007 so far is that it is a NECESSITY to set the trade difficulty to high and favor prospects... In the old version I could NEVER trade older players... no one would want them.

However, this version It seems very easy... A 39 year old has been AAA pitcher wanted out of town so I shoped him around and found quite a few teams willing to give me a decent prospect in return for him.

When negotiating the trade I did the normal thing ... which is adding on player after player until the AI says no. Well this used to end up with me getting the other teams whole minor league system (not quite, but sometimes). In this case I got a few more prospects.

Then I complete the trade and I go look at the other team and they have him assigned back to AAA. What's up with that. That should never happen, but it is repeatable. Now if this was 39 year old Roger Clemens and the other team was in the heat of a pennant race, I would understand, but neither was true in this instance.
