$1 changes a trade

I don't play solo very much so I don't know how long this has been an issue or if people already know about it, but I'm finding that adding $1 to a trade will change the AI's response drastically.

With no cash being offered, the AI will only accept one player from me when I click "Make this work now": Elijah Dukes - 24 years old, 4.5 stars. I accidentally typed $1 instead of $1,000,000 when seeing if cash would help the deal, and when I click the "make it work" button then, they ask for 11 different players, one of them a 27-year-old SP with 1/2 star current rating and 2-star potential.

While the other additional players they ask for are pretty good, $1 should not change the trade at all. It makes me question how the AI values cash and whether I should just not be offering it at all now - how can I know that I'm playing fair even when offering realistic sums of money?

Has anyone else experienced this? I'm using the MLB quickstart.
