    New York New York. Why? Because I was born in NY, and my family has been a Yankees fan since the 70's. For me, its been since 1996. By the way, I remember our team getting our butts kicked by the Braves beating the Yankees game 1 and 2 AT NY. Every sports team I follow is either from New York or New Jersey

      Being the Reds again would be redundant and get old fast. Seattle perhaps, or maybe Texas, unless the retractable roof stadiums being dark for the first 3 innings is fixed, then I'll try Arizona I guess.

        I'm trying to decide between the Rays, Twins, Royals, Mariners, Brewers, Marlins, and Mets. I normally wouldn't use a team with a payroll like the Mets but I'm considering it since they went 70-92 last year and because Citi Field will be correct this year.

          Im a Cubs fan but here are the teams I have been looking through.

          It was between Seattle, Braves, Reds, Cardinals, and Arizona.

          I have Chose the Reds. I like the Young pitching (Chapman) they have and like the Young hitters (Votto, Bruce, Stubbs) and the possibilty of the Minor leaguers they have. (Francisco, Fraizer, Cozart, Alonzo, Wood).

          I was also wanted to find a team that might have some battles in the Spring Training. So I might see how Alonzo, and Francisco do in spring to maybe take 1st base, and move Votto into Left Field.

            Mariners - best offseason on paper in quite some time.

            Paper-Tigers at this point, but the front-end of their rotation and line-up looks awesome.

              Always The Red Sox, though I might do a Cubs one on the side and try to finally lead them to a World Championship.

                Twins. I've been waiting forever to do a Twins franchise but never would since domes are horrible. They have everything I love in a small market team.

                    I like the Reds but I have many criterias!

                    First I want an NL team because the most beautiful ballpark are in the NL.
                    Then I want to play in a large park with a team which represents a challenge but which have good young players and good prospects.

                    So I'm considering playing with the Diamondbacks.

                    After this one, I'm pretty sure doing one with the Twins

                      I'm torn between the Mariners, Reds, and Braves.

                      The Reds because they've been my favorite team for 10 years now, so I usually use them.

                      The Braves because I live in SC, so the Braves are the closest team to me, and I have followed them for most of my life, even if I haven't always been a big fan. I also love the pitching staff and the line up.

                      and The Mariners because I used them last year. And, I love the moves they made this off season, so I would love to try to contend with them in MLB 10.

                        I was going to do one with the nationals but now I am considering using the reds. Harang is still one of my fav pitchers even tho he has sucked the past two years. Plus using young guys Votto and Bruce intrigue me. Plus they have some good prospects like Chapman, alonso and leake. I am also a fan of Rolen even tho he is past his prime. The only thing that makes me want to be the nationals is that Zimmerman is my favorite player and would be fun to pitch with Strasburg when he is ready.

                            I am torn between the Rays & Giants. I see good challenges with these teams. Last yr I did a Rays franchise and it was tough! I am still inclined to play with the Rays because of the tough division they play in but at the same time it would be tremendously challenging to play with a team who has great pitching and mediocre batting at best.
