For those of you who use a different team each year, who are you going with?

Astros would be fun to try and rebuild. New uniforms, new league, horrible team, lol.

I'm seriously considering using Houston. I never use national league teams, but now that they're in the AL... I'm probably going to have to give them a run.

I always used to use the Cardinals (favorite team) but I haven't since 2008. Since then I have used Oakland, New York Mets, Milwaukee, and Washington. I much prefer NL ball, but I don't see many good choices this year.

I think this means I'm going back to my roots and rolling with STL. I'm going to look at Oakland and Cleveland as well.

I'm going to use the Mariners.

As much as I want to do the Yankees who I have done since the MLB 2K5 days, I am really considering doing another team this year, just to change it up a little. I don't buy into the "their too old" crap at all, I think they have a legitimate shot at 28 this year. However, some others look tempting as well. I would like to do a team who has some nice new additions, and a good chance of competing, but not guaranteed.

If I don't go with the Bombers, some factors for me would be:

-League (Prefer AL ball)
-Any new additions (Braves, Tribe)
-Stadium (Love the feel of Rogers Centre, Comerica, don't like O.Co Col., Coors, Miller Park)
-Uniforms (ex. Would never go with Marlins)
-Generous Budget (Tigers, Red Sox, DODGERS ;D)

To give you guys a little bit more of an idea, I would say these are the chances:
Yankees - 50%
Indians - 15%
Braves - 15%
Jays - 10%
Tigers - 5%
Others - 5%

It's a toss up for me between Houston and Washington

I have use the Angels since '09 The Show, but I really like the Giants and small ball of national league. So it is Giants for me in '13.

I always have my standard before OSFM Redsox franchise since they are my fav team, it's hard for me to play with them after the OSFM I don't know why maybe this year will be different with them coming back from a bad year. But my main OSFM chise will be the astros this year I like doing franchises with bad teams in the past i've used Baltimore, Pittsburgh and oakland (the last 3 years)

I am rolling with the Mets, going too see how long I can avoid the Indians

It's down to the Cubs, Mariners, or Royals for me.

The Pirates. They have an okay team, a stacked minor league system, and two top ten draft picks this summer. I even have a rough roadmap in my head for how I want to run the team, it involves hoping that no one will sign veterans like Grady Sizemore, Brian Wilson, and Roy Oswalt by the time OSFM comes out.

I will always use Reds until they add create a team with expansion draft ala all star baseball

Re: For those of you who use a different team each year, who are you going with?

With the additions of Choo, Bourn, Bauer, and Swisher the Indians are very tempting. It would be great fun to beat up on those White Sox all year as well

Choo is not on the Indians

Re: For those of you who use a different team each year, who are you going with?

Last year I chose the Padres, and boy did I regret it. There just wasn't enough offensive power with that lineup, couple that with the fact that their ballpark is such a pitchers park, it made for some very boring games.

Might go the other way this year and go Rockies, an offensive oriented team. Plus, I like picking teams whose stadium I've been to. Maybe the Reds? Bottom line is, it needs someone more fun than San Diego.

Toronto perhaps? I would consider Oakland, but I hate how there's sooooooo much foul ground in that park. I won't rule them out, but that might take some convincing. I'd also consider Miami, but honestly I'm not sold since Stanton is the only real star.

I'd love to play with the Cubbies, but they're just so bad. Not Astros bad, but close.

Like previous posters have stated... I will play with "my team" the Atlanta Braves... always have always will.. I'll throw in some Brewers and Tigers.
Playing with any other team for my franchise doesn't feel right....
