It's been a long-standing issue in OOTP's finances that there aren't enough expenses to match revenues. Which means if you use real-life revenue figures, player salaries will end up much higher than reality since more money is available to spend on them. If you want player salaries to be closer to real-life, then you have to greatly reduce the revenue available to teams in OOTP.

All that said, if you want to research the broadcasting contracts of MLB teams and post that in the aforementioned financial data thread in Talk Sports, it'd be great to see that info get added.
