I remember the last Gen Madden games had an interesting way of doing it.

You go through some menus and you come up with the new stadium. Then you get a cost figure. You can then go into how to finance it. PSLs (ok not really for baseball), private money and public money.

You can off course ask for massive amounts of public money, it goes to a vote, and if it passes, hurray. If it doesn't, you gotta go through the process again, only this time, there is the option of pitching the proposal to a different city, thus moving your club.

Throw in naming rights into the mix too. As it stands, ball parks are very real streams of revenue, which I do not think are properly simulated in OOTP. But the numbers are gonna be different. Yankee Stadium cost more money than I think is even possible to get in OOTP, so there needs to be something more to the financing.

As I do it now, a club builds a stadium, I will essentially dump all their cash on hand. This will often only cost them 2 or so million. Not a real representation of what it costs to build a major league ball park, but its something.

Plus, I wouldn't mind more attention thrown into tv deals. Teams can throw up some cash and start their own network and lift themselves into the stratosphere as some of these clubs have done. Then we can all be silly stupid with our billion dollar tv deals and have large payrolls and loose tremendous amount of games. Yes, I am looking at you LA.
