Here's the spreadsheet that mirrors 5.0 in the sense that it was intended for an MLB league, but with tweaks.
In addition the calculation improvements from 5.5, I made a few other changes:
Quote:
- Added a new "Owner" category. The owner category attempts to assess the largess of a team's owner. It's added to the cash category, which takes that amount, plus the team's share of national media revenue into account
-Divided the multi-team markets in NY, LA and Chicago. I just did it straight across the way for population, but not media markets.

What this means is, 5.7 is more further along than 5.5 in regards to its calculations, it's just not setup for a 32-team league (no big deal) and the changes to Boston aren't here either, because it keeps the relatively purity of how v.5 was setup.
I've deleted 5.0 for that reason, but left up 5.5 for the time being until I bring it up to speed in a new release somewhere down the road.
With the new changes, ballclubs should be able to keep cash in tow as opposed to before, when it was either too arbitrary or too similar. It's still not perfect, but it's better than it's been in previous iterations I think.
Have fun.
