Where should I expand next?

SawyerDR19 · 03-13-2017, 07:16 PM

I'm in the 2019 MLB off season and I want to expand or move a franchise to a new city. Keep in mind I've already moved Tampa Bay to Montreal and Oakland to Portland. Where should I go next?

Oklahoma, Newark/New Jersey, San Antonio, Vancouver, Monterrey (MEX), Santo Domingo (DR) Las Vegas, San Jose, Sacramento, Tampa again, New Orleans, Lousiville, or anywhere else!

I also want to add a new league perhaps in the Dominican or Colombia (I have them as an excellent baseball country) but I'm open to anything! China, Israel, Europe, Brazil, Africa.

I would go with Las Vegas & San Antonio. I usually add teams to those cities myself whenever I sim past 2020.

Las Vegas is always a contender plus I'd be cool if I could get Harper to go their. I may move the Rockies there.

I just added Mexico City and Savannah(because I live here). And for MC, I only signed international players, no American players. For me, just another way to play the game, and to see how far this team can go. I already had Las Vegas and Montreal.

Las Vegas and New Orleans

thorpegiovanni · 03-14-2017, 12:43 PM

I always do Portland and Charlotte.

rpriske · 03-14-2017, 12:45 PM

Vancouver!!

lightgrenade07 · 03-14-2017, 03:59 PM

Sacramento. You moved the A's to Portland, so you can bring back some NorCal representation in the AL this way.

SawyerDR19 · 03-14-2017, 06:57 PM

I really, realllllyy want to, but 3 teams in the Northwest is a bit unrealistic. If I do make a Vancouver team, it would probably be an expansion franchise situation rather than a current MLB team moving there. We'll see!

SawyerDR19 · 03-14-2017, 06:58 PM

I may re-organize the Mexican League and make it smaller and better quality. Almost like a AAAA league right there with Japan and Korea. It would be cool to have a 3 country major league.

r0nster · 03-14-2017, 07:15 PM

I have done world wide league like one league be North American with 3 divisions like Canadian cities and Mexican cities then did one division of Europe one division of Israeli cities and another with far eastern cities like china S Korea and Japan

Orlando? Jacksonville?

i used a table of the major sports and what city they were in... sorted by local population to choose my expansion teams.

i believe it is on a wiki page? google "pro sports city population" or similar i'm sure it will be there. it shows more than just the 4 major US sports, too.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...rts_franchises

or just find city by population if you want to pick more likely locations... or maybe specifically find very unlikely locations too!

Got to go with Louisville. Louisville Sluggers... done. There are some really good Sluggers logos around too.
