Which Team Should I Move?
Debating if i should move any teams in my ABF league. Choose which team i should move, if you have an idea of where I should move them to let me know. LA angels & SF Seals will be expansion teams in 61. not sure where i will expand in '62. Leaning towards Pittsburgh & Milwaukee.

Personally I'd probably pick Cincinnatti or Brooklyn for a variety or reasons (I wrote a novel regarding my reasoning but accidentally backspaced and it disappeared so here is the shortened version). Nice job on the league by the way, I enjoy the mix of real and fake teams creating an "alt history" feel
-They share markets with more teams in NY and Cleveland while they themselves struggled this past season -They both have a mediocre history with only a couple championships, not really placing themselves as a irreplaceable legendary team/franchise in the fashion of the Yanks and Cards in real life, or Philadelphia and Atlanta in your game -I might be biased in this thought but I personally see the two teams as having an antiquated feel that doesn't fit as you enter the more modern baseball era. It's likely due to the fact the Dodgers left Brooklyn during this period and the Reds became the Redlegs, while Detroit continued to exist to modern days and I like the Senators and Generals (as well as their apparent name swap at some point). Actually, if anything maybe you could get rid of the Spiders for many of the reasons I mentioned and start them fresh. There's another team in the market, they have a bad overall record and only one championship alongside a name that just seems incredibly dated for the 1950s. I'd rather get rid of the team with one instead of 0 championships because i like the idea of the ever-suffering, awful Tigers trying to finally get one win for Detroit over them leaving without ever getting a single championship. What do you think? |

Why do you even list Washington if you don't want to move them anyway ...?

If they lost the vote i would have moved them and brought them back in 62, '69 or '77. I follow MLB expansion so I can use MLB schedules.

Redlegs, is who i voted for but i want to bring the Pirates in or Baltimore, most likely Terrapins. Spiders become the Rockers around 1983 and will probably become the Kings soon since I dont have too many good Spiders logos and jerseys. I am not against moving them. So where should i move the team and what should they be called? Pittsburgh Pirates or Keystones Baltimore Orioles, Terrapins or Bomb hate the last one. Chicago Cubs, White Sox, Bulls, Wind, Athletes Kansas City Monarchs, Royals, A's Where else?

You might want to add some dice to your shopping list.
