matt- you choose a franchise, not a city. i assume you mean the current baltimore orioles? here's an excerpt from a great post by Bilfert:

The Baltimore Orioles

The current Baltimore franchise was founded in 1901 as the Milwaukee Brewers. To confuse things further, there was another franchise called the Baltimore Orioles that started in 1901. This franchise went on to become the New York Yankees.

So... the current Baltimore Orioles lineage is as follows:

1901 Milwaukee Brewers
1902-1953 St. Louis Browns
1954- Current Baltimore Orioles

There was another very successful unrelated Baltimore Orioles franchise in the 1800's that played in the old American Association and then the Old National League. This team featured the great hitters like John McGraw, Willie Keeler, Joe Kelley and Hughie Jennings to name a few.

They played from 1882-1899 and then were disbanded.

mxw6- I can't stand random realignment. I will comprise the closest possible to real life alignment factoring owners with two teams if you would like....

I think random realignment is really cool ...

Alright- made up my mind. I'm gonna give the Phillies another try. After missing the playoffs by 1 game with them in season 1, I feel I need to take another shot at winning with Michael Jack and the gang.

glad to see the phillies back. i tried in seasons 1 and 2, but couldnt get them over the hump. maybe youll have better luck.

arvidjosef- i'm going to stick with random. i think it's the fairest method, and makes this franchise league unique- no two seasons will ever be the same in terms of arrangement.

Amen! ...
