I thought this a bit odd that my budget doesn't change (prevents a loophole to
sign players while stars are injured) but at the same time why the low tax?

If you sign someone as an injury replacement, your low-salary tax will be
reduced accordingly.
Trust me, all of this has been thought through already...

Ah ok. Well, I tried it and signed this guy:
19 B.Bradford PG 0.04 0.00 0.04 1 3.40 - 0.73 minor-3 untradeable
minimum $0.45 value
So with 2 injuries and 2 replacements both at 0.04 contracts it still doesn't
seem to help. I'm not usually in a position where my teams make money so this
issue is new to me. Do I need to sign a veteran player? I understood that
cutting this rookie won't affect team cohesion later.
14 players on roster.

Hmm...I always thought the low salary tax was too strict, and even the way it's
set up it should be impossible to have a negative "financial outlook" if you're
paying it.
It's supposed to be set so that if your team rating-- and thus income-- were
the lowest possible, you'd still break even. If it can cause a negative
financial outlook, my opinion would be that needs to me looked at.

You're not paying the injured guy while he's injured, so aren't you still
paying less than if he were healthy?

I was making money but paying no tax before the injury. That's why after it
dropped to low tax. It's the first time in awhile I haven't been over-budget
on one of my teams lol.
