Additional sThe Braves were in Milwaukee at one time.

Not counting the oldest incarnations (such as the Tribe used to be the Cleveland Spiders long LONG ago):

There's 30 teams now.

Add in the following: The Brooklyn Dodgers The Boston Braves The Washington Senators The NY Giants, I think. The Philly Athletics.

Those are all the ones I can think of. That's 35 so far.

I can't say exactly how many teams there have been in MLB history,but the number would be considerably more than 35.Teams have come and gone that played in the same city but have been completely different franchises.For example,the Cleveland Spiders and the Cleveland Indians.The Spiders played in the National League in the 1890's and were dropped by the league before the 1898 season. The Indians were formed in the American League in 1901.Same city, different teams. Only taking in to account professional baseball from 1871 and the formation of the National Association,other Major Leagues such as the American Association of the 1880's and 90's,the Federal League of 1914-15 and the current National League (1876) and American League (1901), dozens of teams perhaps numbering a hundred or more have come and gone from the major leagues.

Of course there are those that have simply upped and moved, so it depends on your definition of how many, but the complete list of differently named franchises since 1871 would total 120 according to Lahman:
