It’s nearly time for the launch of MLB The Show 26, and if you want to stay ahead of the curve for the release, then you’re likely trying to figure out which team you’ll start your first Franchise with. It’s an annual tradition for diehard MLB The Show fans, as that first Franchise Mode team holds a special place in your heart for the rest of the year. As always, though, there are good options to pick in Franchise Mode, and there are options that will make the next week or two of your life a nightmare.
