A player cannot have his salary cut by more than 20% through arbitration, so if a guy has taken a talent hit, and was already making good money, the only way you might be able to get rid of him is to release him before arbitration. With trading set to hard or very hard, it isn't always possible to trade away fifth starter types, especially if they're making much more than the minimum. Otherwise, of course, I agree with the above- better to get something than to get nothing.
