Brooklyn=DD/CL killer Cleveland= Mini-CA (it weighs 17 for Christs sake. York=9)
Using the Cleveland will get you used to using AA guns too, which become very important when you get into CL, CA or BB games. You start to get guns that outrange your sight and scouts become increasingly important. One advantage you can get is to be able to take out your opponent eyes. Also, you become juicer targets for CVs in All Welcomes so they become even more neccesary.
I would recommend arming it with wither dual 8" Mk11d with 3:2 mix of Light and Heavy. This will allow you to compete in just about any games, be they CL/CA, DD/CL , CL/CA/CB, or even Op Convoys if you want to power-level and screw yourself out of experts since you will level faster than you will gain them. For T Mounts I would recommend using the 5/38 Mk38s to get used to AA. They are a pretty standard and decent AA gun.
