      I'll definitely check out the rosters and play some exhibition games first. First game will probably be the O's (hometown team) versus the Yankees (new look).

      I'll definitely have a Franchise going with the O's and I'd like to get one going with another team as well... I'm thinking maybe the Pirates, Mariners, or even the Astros.

        I do a main one and a 30-team one, in my one team one i'll be playing as my Sox and probably try and acquire a decent outfielder to help out with Bradley JR, then deal off Dempster or Peavy to a team that is in need of pitching for a salary dump or a decent spec respectively.

        30-team i am going to test out if there are any new things in franchise, might make some blockbusters to make things more interesting like Price to Mariners, Stanton to Pirates, and some others.

                So true!! Weiters should get you some help in LF. Possibly look toward Houston for a fast OF who can run and bat 1 or 2
                atleast..Its not Delaware

                  I haven't seen any info released yet on what teams will be in the game.
                  j/k lmao

                  First up, an exhibition game Marlins @ Red Sox.

                  Then, a season with N.L. Marlins.

                  Later, an A.L. OSFM franchise with either the Royals or Orioles.

                    I know that my first game will be the Rangers @ Mariners. I'm interested to see Cano, Fielder, and Choo in new threads.
                    I'm taking the twins via fantasy draft. After seeing their park factor for HRs was 2nd to last and walks were 2nd to last I'm picking contact pitchers , defense , and contact hitters.
                    I play MLB exclusively with my cousin. Usually looking for info on Franchises. We played minor league baseball as 9-10 YOs on the Zephyrs.

                      However there is one thing for sure, i will be doing a fantasy draft since we can now carry over our franchises from one year to the other through out the life of the ps4 at least.



                      I will be building a very young talented team that can and will contend for the div and world series title every year for the life of my franchise. that is if i can keep them together from year to year through FA.



                      That is all.

                      I usually am dead set on starting one with my Ny Mets. But after reading your post on the carry over franchise and doing a fantasy draft, i think you've made me change my mind. Because it made me think, if I want to start one with the Mets to carry over, then I'd want so much for realism that making any trades or FA signings in future years will surely not match future moves of the real Mets.

                      But with a fantasy draft league all moves from '14 to '15 + will just be my own story.

                      So I think ill have a Mets franchise to not carry over to '15. and a fantasy draft team to always carry over to the next year.

                        My Cardinals are in a pretty healthy place, so that's no fun to try to rebuild.

                        I probably won't decide until the game comes out, but I'm debating between the Mariners, the Twins, the Padres, or the Rockies as a rebuilding project. The Mariners are leading at this point.

                        My plan is to try to get rid of any veterans I possibly can and go young. Definitely try to build up my pitching and find some good, solid contact hitters and a bona fide speedster to get started. We'll see if any of that comes to fruition.

                          It would be intriguing to start an OSFM dynasty with Seattle & see how many studs one could get by trading Cano before he ever even had an opportunity to don a M's uni lol

                            Haha...that's actually one of the intriguing aspects of it. I hadn't heard if no trade clauses are honored in the upcoming Show or not, but if not, all bets are off.

                              this actually brings up a couple interesting things...

                              1. This type of contract needs the ability to "eat" some of the contract for trading

                              2. The trading needs to be a lot tougher because there might be around 3-5 teams (maybe) that would even consider taking this contract on in real life

                              on another not. The AL West (in the game) will b an insane division in about 2 seasons so that could def be the toughest division to play in
