MLB 24 Franchise team choice?

Re: MLB 24 Franchise team choice?

Definitely play as the cardinals. Depending on how the roster looks in game, I might move edman to second and go get bader back to patrol center. I’m not sold on edman being the every day cf and it doesn’t help that he’s most likely starting the year on the il.

Go cubs go.

But it’s gonna be hell waiting for Imanaga to be added and there’s no point starting without him cause I’ll just restart. So maybe mess around with Cleveland in the meantime

I downloaded a roster in 23 and took notes on their Imanaga and I’m just going to important for 24. Did it with all the international signings, I want to get this thing going lol.

I’ll just update the attributes when they are on the official rosters

See I say I’ll do that but once he’s added officially in game I know I’ll restart. It happened with me when the cubs signed Suzuki a couple years ago.

Re: MLB 24 Franchise team choice?

I can no longer play with powerhouse teams. After 2020 I have no interest in doing so. I like teams that I might be able to win it all with. I don’t play multiple seasons with the same franchise so just one year. I was thinking Arizona. They have enough tools for me to compete but aren’t so overpowering that I could just run through the division or league. Plus I like teams I think I can do something with but I’m not certain so come the all star break or trading deadline I can make a attempt to acquire the pieces I may need.

I might run with two this year. I am considering the Angels and making a drastic overhaul with relocation and such.

Guardians are my usual and this year with the first pick in the draft it will be a lot more enjoyable to scout in year one!

With you on that how people have fun just winning it all every year is beyond me. That’s why I am glad Mets roster sucks will be fun

Hey you could be in New England instead of New York (Insert heavy sigh and obnoxious eye roll)

I used to be like that though. All about winning. I’ve played a full season all but one year since 2006. I’ve won three championships. That’s it. I’d certainly like to win another one but for me it’s more about competition on the highest difficulty I can play while still having some fun. Right now that’s HOF. I’ll probably never be a legend level type player and that’s perfectly fine with me. I like the competition, the storylines of every season, the guys that dramatically over or under achieve. I’ll take the winning but there’s got to be more than that for me now.

I met Lindor, he signed my jersey and it's hanging in my basement from when he was here in Cleveland. Needless to say I'm not as big of a fan of his as I used to be.

Just because you have a "powerhouse" team certainly does not mean you are going to "win it all" every year.

I could say the same exact thing, how can people have fun with constant losing to build up a certain team?

Is it my fault that the Dodgers have a great roster? absolutely not, they have been my fav team since I started watching baseball in the 70's, so therefore I always choose to use them in game, the exact same way as my using the Steelers in every football game.

Bottom line is nobody should be "questioned" on their approach to how they play the game or have fun.

At the same time, say you’re the A’s. Are you really going to build that team up and play every game without simming for 5 years? Probably not.

So how people use a crap team that they don’t have time to rebuild without simming is beyond me lol

I’m a cleveland fan so it works out. Middle of the pack and low budget. Always hard going by that.

I did it with the A's in '22. Almost got to the WS in year 3. It wasn't easy but man was it addictive.

Re: MLB 24 Franchise team choice?

I could need your guys help with that question. I have a very basic knowledge of the league, but really want to get deeper into it and at the same time I finally want to deep dive into the MLB franchise mode, since 2k disappointed me so much this year. I played the last few years more casually and had a great time, but always lost track at one point. This year things should be more serious.

What I always do in modes like this is pick one team and stick for the year with it. In general I look for teams more in the middle of the league: Solid playoff contenders, not really a title candidate in year 1, maybe some stars to build around already and pushing forward their individual careers.

I created a shortlist of teams I am looking at this year, but since there aren't really Power Rankings or previews out yet as far as I saw it's hard for me to find the correct team for that description above. Bonus points for teams with non-american stars, I always have a soft spot for them for a reason.

- Marlins
- Blue Jays
- Mets
- Orioles

Or are there other teams that come to your mind?

That’s a lot of time. One season was hard for me

Orioles are probably higher than a middle of the league team, but i would add:

- Reds
- Guardians
- Rays
- Brewers

Some good young future stars on those teams.

Re: MLB 24 Franchise team choice?

Angels as always. However sometimes I will start one with a random NL franchise. It's usually the Rockies for me. I really like Charlie Blackmon, and the Rockies unis.
