Love some? Hate some? Tell us why!

It’s a very simple fact when you’ve been watching baseball for a long time: some teams are just more likeable than others. Whether its because of a classic underdog story (2017 Astros with your first win in franchise history, I’m looking at you), or a group of fun young players out having a great time (Cleveland Indians, I am grudgingly looking at you), there are teams you come across that you like more than the rest.

Obviously, we’re all going to rank the Cubs at the top of your list, but in today’s FanPost prompt, I want everyone to the OTHER 29 teams. Yes, you’re probably going to need to remind yourself that one or two American League franchises you rarely see play actually exist.

The other part of this is that you need to say WHY you ranked that team so high or so low in your 29-team list. Division rivals will likely hit near the bottom. Is it just tradition, or do you remember a particular game where the Brewers or Cardinals really rankled you? A specific player? On that note, maybe the Phillies spiked up in your interest this year because of Bryce Harper. Any reason is fine, you just need to give one.

And on that note: we’re going to compile your reasons into a post to see how Bleed Cubbie Blue readers really feel about the rest of Major League Baseball.

So head over to the FanPosts section, select “New FanPost” on the left, and get to ranking!

Weekly shoutout goes to deedsy404 for writing about their Favorite Non-Cubs Player (a classic pick we can all agree with, I think).
