Owner sets payroll to -$1Billion

So I have simmed up through season 2085, mostly Gm'ing for the same team. All of a sudden a couple of weeks ago (multiple seasons) the owner would keep setting budget to -$1Billion plus. This has rendered the game unplayable. I thought maybe it was that owner, so I quit that team and took an offer from another. Same issue. I go and check the team I left and the same owner has raised his budget back to normal. I literally had a team full of MLB minimum salaries at one point to see what would happen at the end of the season. Same result. Any idea what is going on? I dont want to restart another sim, but its looking like I must have to.

BTW profits made each season for these owners was over $1B and both say fiscally charitable.

Thanks

Could it be that you need to go to Global Settings and in the lower right corner adjust Global Financial Coefficient?

It appears that that worked. I auto adjusted it and after 1 season it went back to normal. Thank you for your suggestion.
