    Help me pick a team please.....

    I'm from Virginia and can't decide who to pick between the two "local" teams, Washington Nationals or the Baltimore Orioles?

      Division/league I agree with...but better looking ballpark? Camden Yards is beautiful. I know the Nats have Harper and Strasburg, but the O's have Britton, Matusz and two my personal faves OF Adam Jones and Nick Markakis who are both young'ish. However, I do like Werth and Zimmerman, but Werth is getting up there in age.

      It's really is a toss up, You'll face stiff competition from the Yanks and Red Sox (possibly the Rays) if you stay in the AL, but you have a nucleus that is already in the Majors and they are a few serviceable arms and a bat away from really doing some damage. They're are third in my franchise only three games back out of the wild card spot.

        I def dont agree with u as far as camden yards is concerned...I look at that park as the projects..Werth stinks..wayyyy over-paid...You're forgetting about Jordan Zimmerman who would fit nicely as a nice #2 behind strasburg....Considering that I dunno how *good* or *bad* cohi is, I'd take the safe bet with the nats..that's just me

          I'm not bad but I'm not great either. I've been playing the show since 06. I don't remember if it was called the show then.

                    If u basin it on past baseball history then yea...But im more of a modern-day guy and Nationals Park looks muchh better even tho everytime I watch a Nat's game, i see plenty of empty seats..With that being said, u can't really go wrong with either team....I just hope u can pitch relatively well cohi...especially if u pick baltimore

                      I made a trip to Maryland last June and went to a Nats game on Friday and an O's game on Saturday. Camden Yards blows the Nats away. If I was picking between the two teams for one year I'd have to go with the O's. Multiple years, Nats.

                          I plan on drawing out as many years out of this as I can.

                            I'd play as the Nats. They have so many up-and-coming stars it's hard not to like them.

                            Especially if you play with the full minors roster set, with Bryce Harper

                              There is really no bad decision here. Both teams would be fun to play with for quite a few years. I am always big on ball parks and the division when picking a team. Both teams have beautiful stadiums and play in a fun division. I played a nats chise two years ago and was able to go through alot of years because it just kept pulling me in. A ton of young talent to work with. the O's are not too shabby with young talent either. You have a stud future SS to build around in Machado, along with some great young pitching. Again, both teams would be a blast. I would probably lean more towards the O's mainly because I would like to have some battles in Fenway and Yankee stadium for years to come.
