The following is a timeline of franchise evolution in Major League Baseball. The histories of franchises in the National Association of Base Ball Players (NABBP), National Association of Professional Base Ball Players (NA), Union Association (UA), and American Association (AA) before they joined the National League are also included. In 1900 the minor league Western League renamed itself the American League (AL). All of the 1899 Western League teams were a part of the transformation with the Saint Paul Apostles moving to Chicago and to play as the White Stockings. In 1901 the AL declared itself a Major League. For its inaugural major league season the AL dropped its teams in Indianapolis, Buffalo and Minneapolis and replaced them with franchises in Boston, Philadelphia, and Baltimore and the Kansas City Blues moved to Washington to play as the Senators.
In 2020, Major League Baseball designated seven Negro Leagues from 1920–1948 as major leagues.[1]
The timeline has not yet been fully updated to reflect that designation (in addition, the timeline does not include any non-National League/American League teams which existed at the Major League level from 1876 to 1915).

The first line is the formation of the National League in 1876, and the second is the transformation of the American League to a major league in 1901. The third line is the beginning of the expansion era in 1961.
World Series championships are shown with a "*", National League Pennants before the World Series are shown with a "^", and American League Pennants before the World Series "#". No World Series was played in 1904, so the pennant winners for each league are indicated. Due to the 1994-95 Major League Baseball strike, there were no pennant winners or World Series in 1994, so this year is left blank.
Note: Team names are given here according to the convention used by The Baseball Encyclopedia, which regularized them into the familiar form of modern team names. However, most teams in the early period had no name, aside from that of the club (as in "Hartford Base Ball Club" or "Athletic Base Ball Club of Philadelphia"), and nicknames like "Beaneaters," "Perfectos" and the many allusions to uniform colors were inventions by the florid sportswriters of the day.[2]
Pre-modern Era (1876–1900)
1876: Founding of the National League
The National League is established with eight clubs.
The former UA club St. Louis Maroons joins the NL.
Both the Cleveland Blues of the NL and the Columbus Buckeyes of the AA fold.
The AA contracts to 8 teams, with the Indianapolis Hoosiers, Richmond Virginians, Toledo Blue Stockings, and Washington Nationals either folding or returning to the minor leagues.
The Brooklyn Bridegrooms transfer from the AA to the NL.
The Cincinnati Red Stockings transfer from the AA to the NL and are renamed the Cincinnati Reds.
The Indianapolis Hoosiers, Kansas City Cowboys, and Washington Nationals fold.
The Baltimore Orioles transfer from the AA into minor league baseball, and are replaced by the Brooklyn Gladiators. The Gladiators then folded midway through the 1890 season, and the Orioles returned to the AA to finish out the season.
The NL contracts to eight clubs, with the folding of Baltimore, Cleveland, Louisville, and Washington. This eight-team lineup in the NL remained unchanged through 1952.
The Federal League declares itself as a "third major league" with its own eight teams, in competition with the established National and American Leagues.
The Cleveland Tate Stars depart from the NNL as an independent team and are replaced by the Toledo Tigers. The Tigers then folded midway through the 1923 season, and the Tate Stars returned to the NL to finish out the season.
The St. Louis–New Orleans Stars reform and join the NNL as the Harrisburg–St. Louis Stars, having moved to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, though keep the St. Louis moniker as a part of their name. The team would proceed to withdraw from the league in July to barnstorm before quickly folding for good.
MLB realigns to three divisions in each league to accommodate an expanded postseason format with a wild card team (although this new playoff format would not be fully implemented until 1995 due to a work stoppage):
The AL Central is formed with Cleveland and Milwaukee transferring from the AL East; and the Chicago White Sox, Kansas City, and Minnesota from the AL West.
The NL Central is formed with the Chicago Cubs, Pittsburgh, and St. Louis transferring from the NL East; and Cincinnati and Houston from the NL West.
The Atlanta Braves transfer from the NL West to the NL East.
The Detroit Tigers transfer from the AL East to the AL Central.
In order to primarily continue intraleague play, the Milwaukee Brewers transfer from the AL Central to the NL Central so both leagues each have an even number of teams.
With interleague play expanded to occur throughout the season, the Houston Astros transfer from the NL Central to the AL West to accommodate each league with 15 clubs apiece.
^According to the National League's 1877 Constitution, the member clubs were given as "Boston B. B. Club, Chicago B. B. Club, Cincinnati B. B. Club, Hartford B. B. Club, Louisville B. B. Club, St. Louis B. B. Club." Constitution and Playing Rules of the National League of Professional Base Ball Clubs. Chicago, A. G. Spalding 1877.
