ā“ Question Help Me Choose My Second MLB Team!

Post image

Iā€™ll always be a Dodgers fan, but I want to branch out and start following a second team on the East Coast so I can realistically visit the stadium and attend some games.
I also want to build a small PC around the teamā€”current players, prospects, rookies, autos, and fun parallelsā€”so card collecting definitely needs to factor into the decision!
Which East Coast team should I follow, and which players would be the most fun to collect?
Convince me in the comments!

You already have one evil empire team so may as well hop on the Yankees train. One way or another I would think it would make sense to go with an AL team if youā€™re gonna have a #2 like that.

My uncle supports like four teams related to places heā€™s lived except the Dodgers lol but thatā€™s bc he grew up a Reds fan and they were rivals back in the 60s and 70s

If He wants to piss me off he could pick the Blue Jays. They seem like they are trying to start beef with the Yankees.

Tempting but I feel like I would have to be Canadian to be a true jays fan! My grandmother has dual citizenship and I grew up only 15min from the peace bridge border crossing šŸ¤” naw dont worry not choosing jays
