Tysok, the supestar contract is right around 12,000-13,000...I am running the MLB2006V3.1 universe...there are some major issues with the cap and the calculation of payroll during the offseason(namely that any minor leaguers called up during the offseason don't figure into the payroll).
Perhaps the max contract idea should be optional, as some leagues do have max contracts(NBA and NHL), but some don't. This would be more of a workaround fix for the AI than an actual fix. The bigger problem is that free agents who would never sign with unaffiliated minor independent leagues are still signing with them.
Either way, this is something that needs to be looked into bigtime, as the salary cap is basically no use if teams are going to sign players to ridiculous contracts and not factor in minor leaguers with minor league contracts sitting on their rosters that will have major league contracts when the season begins.
