East vs. West

This dynasty begins in the year 2018, but played on OOTP17. The MLB does not exist in this universe, and there haven't been any successful major leagues in America yet. Two competing leagues were established this year: the Eastern Baseball League and the Western Baseball League.

The leagues are very similar, with only slight differences that investors hope will give their league the edge over the other and make it more successful long term.

The EBL is split into the Stars and Stripes Leagues, each of which have an east and west division (arbitrarily named, geography is not really incorporated). The winners of each division make the playoffs after a 162 game season, which includes an all-star game.

EBL:

STAR East Division
Washington Nationals
New York Yankees
Indianapolis Colts
Nashville Predators
Tampa Bay Rays
Virginia Beach Neptunes

STAR West Division
Atlanta Braves
Louisville Bats
Chicago Cubs
Boston Red Sox
Columbus Blue Jackets
Pittsburgh Pirates

STRIPE East Division
Raleigh Flyers
Charlotte Hornets
Philadelphia Phillies
Memphis Grizzlies
Milwaukee Brewers
Cincinnati Reds

STRIPE West Division
Detroit Tigers
Miami Marlins
Baltimore Orioles
Lexington Horsemen
Cleveland Indians
Jacksonville Jaguars

The WBL has just 1 league, split into 3 divisions (North, Central, South, again arbitrary). Division winners and 1 wild card make the playoffs. There's no all-star game.

WBL North
Long Beach Armada
Los Angeles Dodgers
Denver Broncos
Phoenix Suns
San Jose Sharks
San Diego Padres
Fresno Grizzlies
Las Vegas Golden Knights

WBL Central
Dallas Rangers
Sacramento Kings
Seattle Mariners
Mesa Miners
Albuquerque Isotopes
San Antonio Rampage
Houston Astros
El Paso Rhinos

WBL South
Tucson Saguaros
Kansas City Royals
Oklahoma City Thunder
Fort Worth Black Cats
Austin Marshals
Colorado Springs Switchbacks
San Francisco Giants
Portland Beavers

I will be letting the game evolve these leagues and adapting the story accordingly. I have been hired as the GM for the Austin Marshals (I took the job that offered me the most money).

Also, I scrapped together logos and uniforms through the forums, but if anyone is feeling creative feel free to post some of your own here, I'd love to use them!
