The former Charlotte franchise (
Franchise Blog - Hardball Dynasty Baseball | WhatIfSports) has a number of recent high draft picks and the #3 pick overall in this upcoming draft. Their best player are all young and they have no contracts above the minimum. A tailor-made rebuild.
The former Atlanta franchise (
Franchise Blog - Hardball Dynasty Baseball | WhatIfSports) has won 8 of the last 9 division titles including 3 recent WS wins. The are a favorite to make the playoffs again. Want to win the WS this season or next? This is your team.
The former Albuquerque franchise (Franchise Blog - Hardball Dynasty Baseball | WhatIfSports) is the Diet Coke version of the franchise above with perhaps even more ML talent.
The franchise I would take is the former Tacoma franchise (Franchise Blog - Hardball Dynasty Baseball | WhatIfSports) . while the history isn't as strong as the two above all of the talent is young. I believe this team was the youngest team to make the playoffs last year.
Personally I wouldn't touch the Louisville franchise (Franchise Blog - Hardball Dynasty Baseball | WhatIfSports) with a 10 foot poll, but a lot of people like starting with the #1 overall pick.
The former OKC franchise has been kind of in the middle, but good owners have been running them so there is probably a decent farm system to go with ok ML talent. Franchise Blog - Hardball Dynasty Baseball | WhatIfSports
The former Portland franchise will be the last one I fill. It's bad but not terrible, has a few older expensive players, and is sort of average. If you want a true rebuild this is it.
