I think alot depends on what sort of guidelines you want to follow. Do you want every franchise represented or just the 32 'greatest teams'. My suggestion would be to represent 28 teams (exclude Arizona and Tampa Bay since they are only 4 years old, although the 2001 Arizona team could probably be substituted for the Colorado franchise) and also pick 4 wildcard teams to represent defunct franchises (1924 Senators, 1944 Browns, etc.)
Some teams that I would probably include would be:
1927 Yankees; 75 or 76 Reds; 1931 A's; 1954 Indians; 1942-44 Cardinals; 1909 Pirates; 1957 Braves; 1984 Tigers; 1986 Mets; 1963 Dodgers; 1918 Red Sox; 92 or 93 Blue Jays; 1980 Phillies
