Note Colorado's current AAA team is Albuquerque, previous AAA team was Colorado Springs.
Milwaukee's current AAA team is Colorado Springs, previous AAA team was Nashville.
The only additional switch you should have to make is the ballparks.

I guess I am more anal when it comes to the history section of teams...in real life, when a team changes affiliates, they are not relocating their current team to the new city and the new team is not moving either....they are just swapping affiliates. So in your example, Nashville did not move to Colorado Springs (and vice versa), so the team historical wins/losses and season would not go to Colorado Springs, they would stay with Nashville.
The method I posted will keep all that history in tact and the steps I posted way back in my original response really does not take any longer than renaming the teams, updating uniforms and then changing the ballparks....and you also do not have to regenerate any schedules because the league structures did not change, only the affiliations did. I have hoped that affiliate contracts would be added at some point so we can emulate real affiliate changes.
But as I said before....it's your game...play it how you want....I am a little more OCD than others
