CubbyFan23 · 07-14-2010, 06:42 PM

LA Angels are another solid lineup, with Lastings Milledge leading the attack. A ton of depth on this team from top to bottom and some high end pitching prospects making their ML debuts this year. Team was drafted and signed international prospects very well.

San Francisco Giants are a team in flux - the best for anyone looking for a challenge and a way to build your own team. A ton of money to spend but some very good talent at the major league level. They have some of our best hitting prospects in the league.

Current available teams - Cubs? Cubbyfan, why aren't you managing the Cubs!!!

Great core of competitive GMs. Some really good teams out there with all kinds of different ways to have fun. Commish has real international players declare for free agency which is great. Real players get squeezed in to the draft as well. Lots of fun additions.

For fear of not being able to trade any of my favorite players.

Super competitive league with one of the most imaginative commissioners around - all of the available teams have either a very strong farm system or solid ML roster.

I love this league! The international free agents and younger players keep things fresh and somewhat realistic even heading into 2013. There are some really heated divisions (like the NL East where I play as the Braves) and a core of great owners. If you take over the Nationals you'd be in for a challenge, but it'd be a great time with some awesome owners in your division.

I'm a longtime OOTP solo player and I'd like to try playing in an online league. After looking at the available teams on the league website, I'd like to take the Cubs.

CubbyFan23 · 07-16-2010, 04:51 PM

Five open teams left!

anthonywvalentine · 07-18-2010, 11:57 AM

I sent a request yesterday thru the website. My first choices would be the Detroit Tigers followed by Los Angeles Angels

CubbyFan23 · 07-19-2010, 06:36 PM

Three teams open still!

Houston Astros are built around speed and defense, and led by staff ace Adam Wainwright. Gold Glovers at almost every position including Andrew McCutchen in centerfield, Hunter Pence in right and Mike Napoli at catcher. Nice farm system with some high upside prospects.

LA Angels are another solid lineup, with Lastings Milledge leading the attack. A ton of depth on this team from top to bottom and some high end pitching prospects making their ML debuts this year. Team was drafted and signed international prospects very well.

San Francisco Giants are a team in flux - the best for anyone looking for a challenge and a way to build your own team. A ton of money to spend but some very good talent at the major league level. They have some of our best hitting prospects in the league.
