Can't speak for others, but in my case, there was no second or third year the new team had to pay for for. It was a pending FA that I offered cash to pay remainder of salary so I could get a better player in return. In other words, they were getting a FREE player for the rest of the year.
I can't figure out how they cannot afford a FREE player who won't return the the following season unless they negotiate with him. If you don't like the trade, fine, but don't say you can't afford him when he's not going to cost you anything.
