This is absolutely the way to go with carryovers. Other teams I use are for one and done seasons. I've had my Braves carryover since Show 14 so it looks drastically different from todays Braves so it has my stamp on it and 5 Shows later it doesnt really matter that what I started with was based on the 2013 season. I cant imagine investing that much time on a franchise that wasnt my team. Plus the early Show 18 Orioles aren't nearly as bad as the current IRL one is lol

That is a valid point. I still have manny machado among others with the V2 rosters which will allow to start the rebuild however I like. And I will probably do a 30 team franchise so I could maybe “control” another one of the teams to keep me engaged until I work the Orioles back into contention

They probably offer more of a challenge then the Red Sox or Indians as well in my opinion. You have two legit threats to compete with in the division with the Rockies and Diamondbacks. Giants aren’t so good irl but may be able to make a little noise in the show. Padres have a great farm system, they should be on the rise soon.



AL East you really only have the Yankees to compete with at the moment. Doubt the Rays win 90 games in the Show. Indians entire division is terrible, really no challenge in that division. Basically the entire division is rebuilding. KC and Detroit will likely stay bad for a while.



Overall I think the Dodgers are the best choice out of the 3.


The dodgers were who I was leaning to. I like the setup they have. I think I’m down to either the Dodgers or Orioles at this point

Highly suggest the Braves and mimicking bringing up the young talent on the same timeline they did this season. It really keeps things interesting.

A lot of deadline movement too keep it entertaining.

I have 40 games left and have a 3 game lead on the WC. 4 gms begins devision.
