Part of a GMs job is selling what he is doing, even if it isn't all that great. To pretend otherwise is foolhardy.

You sure seem to be a master of GMing.
Can you please let us know how you would have dealt with a player on an expiring contract who was very vocal about only wanting to land on a handful of teams south of the border? Short of pointing a gun at another team's GM and demanding a better haul, how would you have managed to get a better haul in what was, and has clearly been for a while, a soft market for said player?
