I wont pay more than 2K for any gold player and no more than 150 for any silver player because I found it fairly easy to obtain them. What I've done is play 9 inning DD games with a FULL captain compliant roster (no legends, flashback, prime, etc.. cards) vs Oakland on HOF level. Why? Simply cycle through all the teams and you will quickly notice that there are only two levels of rewards payouts, A high and a low. Oakland is in the high level with Cubs, Astros, Mets, Dodgers, etc..So far the worst payout victory I've gotten is Silver-Bronze-Bronze. The best payout victory was Gold-Gold-Common. The silver players have all been between 81-84.
