Can someone with more baseball contract knowledge tell me how/why a player gets specific teams listed in a no-trade clause?

Just part of the negotiations. It allows the player to avoid playing in a place in which they don't want to play.
Yet, when actually exercises, it could make for a strange relationship.

they request it during negotiations... sometimes it is just their preference that they do not want to play for those teams. Some do it just so they can't be traded without consent. Some may do certain teams because of family and they don't want to be moved from a certain area/region.
