Is it me? Am I missing something? Why won't he sign?

Go ahead, say it..."Why are you bothering signing this guy anyway?"

I'm stumped. Offer him another thousand, see what happens.

Maybe he doesn't like your team

I've seen this, and whenever it happens, the player in question ends up signing a minor league deal with another team. So, I've taken this to mean, "I am interested in a minor league contract...but not with your team." In other words, the player is basically telling you, "Yeah, not gonna happen."

Thanks. At least I know I'm not the only one.

As someone already mentioned, I take it more as, "Yeah I'll take a minor league deal, but not from you." It's happened to me a few times.
