Re: Would this work?

You are from Pittsburgh, so let's use the Pirates as an example...
What if one year all the players super overachieved and the team couldn't afford to pay them?

I guess you would need to have owners who are willing to commit the money necessary for a winning team. If the Pirates were doing well, the team would make so much more money it's not even funny. Now, having the owner who would pay for it, is another story. The Pirates lose every year but still make a healthy profit.
So, either find an owner (or group of owners) willing to pay, or make it so that anything over say $100m would come from leaguewide revenue. Saying, the max liability for any owner is 100m (could change from team to team as markets are obv very different.)
