Favorite Team to Use (Franchise Mode)

Who is your favorite team to use this year, particularly in franchise mode? I'm looking for a team who has pretty good hitting and decent pitching but is not a complete powerhouse... A team that can still use some work. So far I've used the Marlins, Pirates, Jays and Nats. I just find myself getting bored with them quickly. How about you guys?

I use the Mets. They are my team so I only use them. Should be a good challenge this year which will make it fun.

You want a pretty decent team that isn't a powerhouse?

Try the Diamondbacks or the Athletics. I seem to have pretty good luck with them.

I personally always use the Red Sox when I can :P Love being a Sox fan.

Re: Favorite Team to Use (Franchise Mode)

I always run with my Giants once the OS rosters drop, but I also like to run with the flavor of the year teams.

'08: Det because of the big FA signings and Bos for the WS win
'09: Phi because of WS win and using R.Howard
'10: I stuck to the Giants
'11: was all about Atl and J.Hayward
'12: is Miami and think I'll head back to Det since they signed Prince.

I'm talking from the standpoint of the players being decent on paper.

I haven't played as them this year yet, but it was easy enough to win with them last year, thanks to the great pitching, and the play of some of the hitters (for some reason, I hit well with Suzuki.. like really well)
