Match MLB after-tax salary
equivalent_mlb_salaryFind the gross salary on a comparison MLB team that matches the after-tax income of a known salary on a baseline team. Ask for the baseline team, comparison team, filing status, and either baseline_salary or base_salary. Do not invent team codes. Call list_tax_calculator_inputs for allowed values. Present the result as a calculation, not as tax or legal advice. Required before this call: baseline_team, comparison_team, and baseline_salary or base_salary. Match a player with list_team_players only after league, team, and season_id are known. Repeat inputs and defaults from the result in the reply.
