Step 1: New season, go to expansion mode Step 2: take control of one of the expansion teams (its best to customize your stadium, team name, home city, etc now) Step 3: Start the season Step 4: make trades with the OTHER expansion team to acquire their best 10 or so players, usually for points, simming ahead 5 days to get trade result Step 5: dump any players over 40 total on your roster Step 6: Go to Save, and Save your expansion team as a new Arrange Team Step 7: New season, go to expansion mode Step 8: Insert your expansion arrange team in PLACE of some other MLB team (the Rays for instance) Step 9: Trade with the TWO other expansion teams, getting their best 5-10 players to add to your squad Step 10: cut roster to 40 players, save as arrange team over your previous slot Repeat steps 7-10 to your own taste |

I may try the expansion challenge, but just play it straight-up with the players I get on the first try. |

You can try, but All-Star will whip your butt. Even compiling the best of just 3 or 4 teams meant I went 10-30, on fast pitch and all All-Star CPU difficulty. I've finally treading water - with a winning record! - after compiling about 9 teams' worth of the best guys. Even then finding a guy with speed D on my bench is difficult. And the two B power 1B sluggers I have both hit like .230 if I am lucky, urgh. |

Here's my team info. How are the jerseys? Oh, and that's purple, not blue lol. Are we allowed to trade for and sign real players later in? |

no, no real players at all. no created players. Only what you can get as expansion rookies. True test!! Its just a one-season game, because after a whole season you can train your guys in new positions, new pitches, and get big improvement from training. |

yeah i had those on my first team, but like I said Amarista was too good. just a single blue, multi-position, and having speed C was enough to have him waaay too valuable. I figured I offset the plusses of going thru 9 expansion teams worth of talent by removing the created players. So that's what I'm doing. The other guy, Rymer Liriano, was kinda worthless, so maybe an under-powered created guy is fineā¦I just wanted to go 100% expansion this time. |

I'll probably go past one season, but the challenge is the first year then. Okay. No real or created players it is. I won my first game 14-10. But I only used the team I was given, no multi-team stuff. My RF hit for the cycle as a 3EEEEFF. |
