Best rebuilding project - The Show 17

Which of the teams below should I do a dynasty on in MLB The Show 17. Seems the biggest challenges are all NL teams.

Miami Marlins - The have Stanton, some speed in Gordon and a few prospects, but still need a lot of work, especially with pitching.

Atlanta Braves - Big name in Freeman, and an exciting young SS in Swanson, but 2/5 over their rotation is over 40

San Diego Padres - A plethora of young talent, some being pressed into service very early, but a potentially bright future and a spare prospect or two to maybe bring in some pitching.

Oakland A's - A ho hum roster, with some recognizable names, but no franchise players. Cotton has some potential, but they are still a ways out

New York Yankees - I know they are not really a rebuilding project, but they are my favorite team and in a transition to the next gen of players. Veteran holdovers like Sabathia, Ellsbury and Gardner have young players in the farm system with eyes on their jobs.

Who do I take?

I voted Oakland since there's a youtuber my kid watches that's doing the Braves already.

I would say Oakland for the highest challenge. The Yankees would be like playing on Easy mode. But play a team that you will enjoy playing over the long term. My team is the Blue Jays and I always pick them for dynasties, regardless of the challenge.

The Braves are a dumpster fire

Tied, so it will be the Padres if it remains that way. Only because Petco is so much nicer than that cookie cutter the A's play in
