Which MLB team should I support/root for?
I hate to ask this kind of question since I see it on football subs all the time and I bet some of you are annoyed by it as well. But, I'm looking for some guidance on how to find a team to gravitate towards as I try to get back into baseball. I live in the northeast and I support the following teams in other sports: Chicago Bears, Boston Celtics, Oregon Ducks, Seattle Kraken, and Aston Villa FC.
I've visited a few stadiums over the years including: Fenway, Camden Yards, Shea Stadium, Chase Field, most recently Great American Ball Park, and have walked around the exterior of the Mariners, Pirates and Cardinals ballparks.
The only rule I have is that the team I choose/that chooses me cannot be in either East division, as I have friends who root for teams in those divisions so I'd rather avoid the banter with them. Ideally I'd like the team to not completely suck (so they have a decent chance at making the postseason soon) and have some good history but not too much recent success (ideally no World Series wins since 2000... I want to be along for the ride!).
Some players I thought were cool when I was younger: Mike Piazza, Vlad Guerrero, Felix Hernandez
Teams I'm considering: Mariners, Mets (despite my East rule but one of my friends is a Phillies fan), or Reds.
Wouldn't do Cubs since I wasn't there for their long struggle. Also not interested in Twins, Tigers or Brewers
I appreciate any suggestions based on the information presented here.
