Yes you need to ignore what they say because the AI gets tripped up a bit.

"You offered me a minor-league contract. What I really want is a minor-league contract"

That can drive you nuts, trust me! The logic for milb contracts and milb contracts with options seems bugged. This guy thinks he's worth an X contract, so you offer it to him. Then the AI comes along and offers him the same thing because that's what he wants, so he's programmed to come back to you and say "Team X is interested in me, you should offer me more". But he still thinks he's worth an X contract so he asks for the same thing.

If you get in that loop, up the offer instead of listening to the player.

This is why all of my milb contract offers come with some sort of signing bonus, even if it's just $500. It's to keep the AI from matching what is a essentially a free offer and making me negotiate more than I want to.
