I think if you expanded this list the Royals would be in the second tier...an up and coming team that is poised to challenge this season, loaded with great young talent both at the major league level and in the minors.

Their roster will be fun to tinker with and leaves a lot of wiggle room for trades, etc.

Plus how can you not love Kauffman Stadium lol?

I'm sure I'll tinker with a few other teams (O's, Braves, Pirates come to mind) but right now, I see myself rolling with the Royals.

You just made me laugh out loud...that was great man. I love when people can find humor, and joke about their teams when they are not playing well or the outlook isn't very positive for the upcoming season.

I love the loyalty and devotion in this statement!

Sad but true.....hence why i fight the urges to play with my A's....this year i wouldn't be surprised if they're the worst team ratings-wise in Show '12....There's absolutely nothing to look forward to in real-life...i'd be much happier playing with any other garbage team

With young guys like Bryce Harper, Ryan Zimmerman, Jordan Zimmerman, and Stephen Strasburg, there's a lot of buzz in the D.C. area. I had a franchise with the Rays in MLB 11. I love their dark blue uniforms on the road, and their alternate light blue home uniforms. They've also got a few youngs guys like Desmond Jennings, Ben Zobrist, Evan Longoria and David Price. Don't forget James Shields either. I think you should go with either of those two teams.

Thanks xKaoTicxLegEndx

I played a season with the Rays back in 2009 so the Nationals may get the nod this year. It's going to be so tough going against the Phillies who are my real life favorite team 18 times a year. However, Bryce Harper is going to surpass Chase Utley and Scott Rolen as my new favorite Big Leaguer when he officially starts this year. Harper is Pete Rose gritty style but with Justin Hamilton abilities. Going to be fun this season!
