TV Contracts in real life $

Hey all,

I purchased ootp 2014 last year and played it briefly, and I just today picked up 2015. My question stems from trying to give very real numerical figures to TV contracts that teams have. For instance I think if I remember correctly that each team is fairly far away from their real world counterparts (i.e. Angels receive $60mil in game, but in the real world I believe that number to be closer to $127 million <according to Fangraphs>.)So the question I have is whether I should plug in real numbers to help differentiate between the monstrous financial gap between some of the teams in the game?

Hopefully you guys can help, but I remember last year someone mentioning that if real world numbers were plugged in that the finances in the game would go haywire after a year or two. Hopefully you guys can help me out with that. Thanks
