* baseball teams must feature both a fictional team name and a fictional roster that never played together on the same team.

A TV-Movie is a movie made just for TV.
You could add the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant team from the Simpsons' episode Homer at the Bat.
What about the main teams from A League of Their Own? The Rockford Peaches and the Racine Belles?
FYC:
Roswell Greys - X-Files episode The Unnatural
The WKRP team - WKRP in Cincinnati episode Baseball
The Bluth Company team - Arrested Development episode Switch Hitter
The OB/GYN team - The Mindy Project episode There's No Crying in Softball
The Sandlot team - The Sandlot
Just curious, where did you get that name for Field of Dreams?

The All-American Girls Professional Baseball League was a real league and The Rockford Peaches and the Racine Belles were actual teams. The listed teams are the only fictional ones in the movie that did not exist. I have listed only teams whose names and existence are not real in the poll. There are few other movie options in the list that feature a combination of real and fictional teams. As well as, some movies feature real leagues with a fictional teams playing within that league. I have omitted fictional rosters that are played on "real" teams to avoid any confusion (ie Major League, For Love of the Game). To qualify for the poll, the baseball team must feature both a fictional team name and a fictional roster that never played together on the same team.
The Field of Dreams name is a combination of the location of where they play (Dyersville, Iowa) and what Ray Liotta's character called the team in the movie when asking permission to play. The name is used as a reference point to the fictional teams on the poll list. The other team in the movie was the MLB Boston Red Sox and the moniker is also used to distinguish the "Old Timers" from them.

FYC:
The Oakland Athletics (or "A's") from Moneyball
The TV movie, Aunt Mary, only has 57 raters/voters so I'm not suggesting it, but I loved that team, their spirit, and the whole philosophy behind the team. I believe it was based on a true story.

Aunt Mary sounds like an interesting story. A quick check reveals it is a true story based on the life of Mary Dobkin. Likewise, the Moneyball team is a true story based on real MLB team and the actual real players that played on the 2002 Athletics roster.
