Turning coaches on does not make any teams over budget. The file is set to run with coaches ON, meaning in the current form, the financials are setup to run with what those current (inflated) numbers are. The only teams that are over-budget in game are those that are over-budget in real life such as the Cubs and Padres. I will probably change the available payroll to make it so that all teams can have at least a little cash available, but that has nothing to do really with this inflated staff salary #.

The only possible problem I could see would be the issue with scouting, but that's because the file isn't set to run with scouting on. If you would like to, all you would need to do is bump each team's available $$ up by $2.5M or so when you turn on scouting.

The way it's setup in game does not make playing with coaches unplayable at all. It's not any different than if the number was not inflated, because I've adjusted the total team payrolls to take that number into account. I'm not sure why any online leagues would turn coaches off because of that, because that would make no sense.
