The Amazins!!!

New York Mets

I always play as my beloved Braves. I am a huge Chipper fan. His ratings are always done correct especially eye and patience at the plate. But with that being said, I might roll with the Angels. Choices!

How can you not add the Nats on this list? Washington has 4 solid starters in Gio Gonzalez, Edwin Jackson, Jordan Zimmerman, and (of course) Strasburg. You've got guys like Michael Morse, Ryan Zimmerman, and Jayson Werth. Also you have young guys like Wilson Ramos and Danny Espinosa who are threats to hit 20 homers and of course Bryce Harper who will come up at some point this season. Davey Johnson says that Harper is already MLB ready. Just saying

Im shocked there has been no sign of homerism in this thread, well done guys.

6 pages in and no mention of the 2011 World Series Champs until you said it...I can't wait to use Wainwright for a full season, since I play with real rosters, I didn't use him in the season..

Our lineup will be nice also..

Fucal
Beltran
Berkman
Holiday
Freese
Yadi
Schu
Jay

Can't wait..Now if we can just get Loshe out the way and get Oswalt

Since we are all naming line ups here.. like everyone cares.

Kinsler
Young
Hammy
Beltre
Cruz
Napoli
Murph
Moreland
Andrus

That's 8 potential 20 home run hitters.. Best line up in baseball.

Huge Braves fan but I will at least try out a franchise with the Marlins.....the new stadium will have me wanting to roll with them.

Even though I live and die with the Jays, I usually just play a game or two a week in Exhibition with them using the latest rosters. I don't pretend I could pull off half the moves that A.A. does by using them in Franchise. Some of the moves he's made, you wonder when Bud Selig will announce a patch to fix some wonky trade logic displayed in the majors

Anyway, I usually pick a team that I feel needs a complete new set of eyes on their team and not one that necessarily needs a complete overhaul, but one who's vision needs to do a 180.

Two years ago, I used the Mariners. Last year, it was the Orioles. This year? The choice is almost too easy...the Mets!! Sorry to all the Mets guys in here in advance, but there is not a single team in the majors who needs to scrap their front office in their entirety more than them. With everyone in their division already elite (Phillies, Braves) or on the path to being so (Marlins, Nats), it'll be fun to take them over and see how long it takes to make them competitive again.

Plus, I love their unis and Citi Field. Been looking for an excuse to use them for a long time.
