Re: Twins or Phillies
Philly, even though they're a MAJOR Brave rival. They have so much tradition, dating all the way back to 1883, plus they don't do the DH thing, plus plus they only have two world series titles since 1883. By comparison the Twins moved to Minnesota in 1961 and already have as many WS titles. Philly has more losses all time than any other club. Philly has the 6th worst winning pct. all time (.473) Admittedly they did win the more recent title of the 2 clubs (Minn. 1991 vs Philly 2008) And you got to hand it to to Giles & Montgomery; They are willing to dole out the money: 128 million dollar payroll vs Twins Pohlad's paltry 84 million. And when you consider the state of the Twinkies top two prospects Byron Buxton & Miguel Sano, who knows what's going to happen there. I'll take my chances with Maikel Franco & JP Crawford, though their potential isn't as great as Buxton & Sano.T-BONE.

Re: Twins or Phillies
If Historic rosters, Phillies. They have a deep history, as a previous poster said, back to the 1880's. From Chuck Klein and Lefty O'Doule to Sliding Bill Hamilton to Richie Ashburn and Dick Allen and Steve Carlton and Mike Schmidt. I don't particularly care for much of the most recent Phillies.
The Twins start to get good in late 2015. Hard to play with them in 2014. I usually sim 2014 OR play all the minor league games. Put all their top prospects at AA (New Britain) and play at all the fun stadiums you like, get the training right, and go to town. These Twins are actually fun to play with. Then in 2015...if you have the ratings you like, play with the MLB club.NBA: Minnesota Timberwolves
MLB: Minnesota Twins
NFL: Minnesota VikingsComment
