Do you use default salary settings?

Just wondering what everyone uses for their player salary settings? I had lowered my superstar to $15M and star salary to $12M, but I am still seeing some inflated signings. For example I just had two players sign for $35M+ a season during the same off season.

I did offer contracts to both of these players (until they asked for 40M) so maybe this is just a result of the AI being more aggressive (to make it more difficult for human player)? Which I'm perfectly fine with btw, I'm just trying to get salaries a little closer to real life. I already hate giving someone more than 20M a season, let alone 40M!

This is using the MLB quickstart

Thanks

Also be sure to limit the amount of cash floating around. If the average profit is really high, then the AI will try and use the available money (from my experience). I saw improvement when i reduced the ticket prices and or media contracts.

Ok thanks, I'll give it a try. Team budgets are definitely high. 15 teams are over 150M. And every team but two are above 100M.
