The Idea
Build the greatest team never assembled. Each roll pulls a real MLB franchise from a real season — you pick one player and slot them into your lineup. Keep rolling until all 15 spots are filled, then simulate a full 162-game season to find out how far your team goes. Go 162-0 and you've built something legendary.
Draft Rules
- Each roll gives you a random MLB team from a real season between 1947 and today.
- Pick exactly one player per roll. You can't skip.
- Position rules: outfielders fit LF, CF, or RF. DH and Utility take any hitter. Pitchers fill the three rotation spots (SP1–SP3) and Closer.
- A drafted player auto-advances the draft to your next roll.
- Your draft is saved to your browser — refresh and pick up where you left off.
Building a Winner
LineupOBP creates baserunners. SLG, HR, and RBI turn them into wins. Chase both.
RotationSP1 and SP2 carry the most weight. Target starters with high innings, low ERA, and strikeouts.
DefenseCatcher, shortstop, and center field carry extra defensive value. Corner spots and DH need to hit.
ManagerA strong manager season adds a small edge. World Series-winning seasons get a bonus.
Balance matters. A loaded lineup with weak pitching — or three aces and no offense — gets penalized in the sim. The best builds do both well and don't leave the closer, Utility, or manager slots empty.
The Simulation
When your roster is full, each player is scored using their real season stats, normalized across eras so a 1955 slugger competes fairly against a 2001 one. Six factors combine into your team score:
OffenseOBP, SLG, HR, RBI, run production
RotationIP, ERA, WHIP, strikeouts, wins
CloserSaves, ERA, WHIP, late-inning usage
DefensePosition fit — C, SS, CF premium
UtilityFlexible hitter at reduced weight
ManagerCareer winning % + WS bonus
That score maps to a deterministic projected win total, so the same roster always gets the same record. Reach the benchmark and go 162-0 every time.
