Why eras, not just teams?

Baseball has been played professionally since the 1870s, so a club name covers more ground here than anywhere else on the site. Landing on an era pins it down: which decade, which lineup, which rotation. The 1927 team and the 1998 team share a city and nothing else.

It’s the real draft, not a toy spinner

The spin hands you a real squad and the full game takes it from there. You draft a lineup and a rotation from that era, every card carrying a season the player genuinely had, and then 162 games run. A long schedule is unforgiving — it finds the seat you skipped. Play the full game, or see everything this sport has.

Questions people actually ask

How does the MLB team randomizer work?

A tap spins through real club eras and stops on one, showing the city, the years and how much of that roster is available to draft. From there you open the full list and start filling seats.

How far back do the eras go?

Into the nineteenth century and forward to the current game, including the recognised Negro Leagues. Clubs appear as a city and a span of years, taken from the public record.

Do I get pitchers as well as hitters?

Both, and you need both. A random era gives you the whole squad to pick from, and a lineup with no rotation behind it loses games all summer.

Can I keep spinning?

Yes. It is a tool rather than a daily board, so you can spin until an era interests you and nothing is used up.

Does it cost anything?

No. It plays in the browser with no account and no download.
