None. I tihink there are too many teams in baseball as it is. The talent pool is watered down. I think they should drop 4 or 6 teams.
However, I wouldn't be opposed to possible franchise relocations, in which case the following might be cool.....
Las Vegas BlackJacks
Buffalo Iroquois
Anchorage Inuet
San Antonio Pioneers
...and for an international flair.....
Mexico City Immigrants
Havana Stogies

Las Vegas should be the next city to get a MLB franchise. The city itself has a population over 500,000, with surrounding areas boosting the total to 1.5 million. Current figures show that 1,000 people a month are moving to Vegas, not to mention the astounding number of tourist visitors a day. Over 300 days of sunshine create a climate to rival Phoenix's "Arizona Diamondbacks". It's time that this great southwestern city gets rewarded with a sports franchise.
A good name would be Las Vegas Vision. Vision is appropriate because when people either visit Vegas or move there they have an idea of a better life or of good fortune to come.

well if they added one team they would probably have to add another, so that there were an even # of teams. so how about the sacramento terminators and the mexico city robbers. MLB would then have 32 teams and so they could move to 4 divisions per league, and 8 divisions total and have all the division winners make the playoffs, or they could adapt the NFLs playoff system with the division winners as well as 2 wild-cards, however baseball traditionalists would probably get mad.

Buffalo, N.Y. deserves one. We were one of the finalists when they instead chose Florida (bad choice there) and Colorado. We have proven that we are a loyal sports city, with the Bills and Sabres. We sell out every game for the Bills despite not having been to the playoffs since 1999. THERE'S NOTHING ELSE TO DO IN BUFFALO!
For the team name... we will just take what we call our AAA team: The Buffalo Bisons.

San Antonio, Texas. Its the largest city in the US without a major league team....hell, it doesn't even have a Triple A team....just a Double A team. How about the San Antonio Tacos?

I think that Honolulu, Hawaii deserves one. People in Hawaii don't get to see live baseball that often. I'd name the team the Honolulu Hawaiians.
Although, a new MLB team anywhere would throw off the scheduling since you have to have an even number of teams to have a smooth schedule.
