A win every day from April to October. Draft the lineup and rotation that never drops one.
A win every day from April to October. Draft the lineup and rotation that never drops one.
Draft an all-time baseball roster — lineup and rotation — then sweep the complete 162-game regular season: 162 wins, 0 losses.
Yes, but most boards fall short. Every lineup and rotation seat contributes across the full 162-game season.
No, and nobody has come close — across 162 games even the greatest clubs lose forty or more. The best record in history belongs to Chicago in 1906 at 116-36, and they lost the World Series.
Every spin hands you one club era and the men who actually wore that uniform, their real season lines on the cards. You are filling a batting order and a rotation behind it, and baseball punishes the bottom of both: a soft bat in the seven-hole or a fourth starter who gives innings away costs you ballgames somewhere across 162, however loaded the top of the roster looks.
No — no charge and no account. It runs in the browser and your lineups and rotations save to this device.
Baseball history back to 1871 — real player seasons rated against their own era. A club appears under every city and stretch of years it has had, and that window is what decides which roster is on the board when it lands.
Minutes, not hours. You fill a batting order and a rotation one spin at a time, then the whole schedule resolves in a single pass and hands back a record with the games it dropped.
One defeat anywhere in the schedule. Baseball plays every day for six months, so the loss rarely comes from the star you argued about — it comes from the seven-hole bat or the fourth starter on a Tuesday in July.
It is the baseball lane of Draft Challenger, the all-time draft game that runs the same dare in twelve sports. This door owns the 162-game sweep; the full slate, hockey to cricket, runs from the main site.
Expansion set the number: the American League moved to 162 games in 1961 and the National League matched it in 1962, and outside strike and pandemic seasons it has held ever since. Six months of schedule with no bye weeks is exactly what makes a perfect version of it the cruellest board here.
By a distance. Football asks for seventeen results and basketball for eighty-two; baseball asks for a hundred and sixty-two, and every single one of them has to go your way.
The 162-0 game is won at the bottom of the roster, not the top. The schedule finds the weak seat wherever it hides, and the rotation carries as much of the record as the batting order — a thin back-end starter loses games a loaded lineup cannot buy back. Since every season is rated against its own era, a deep pick from a year you know beats a famous name having an ordinary one.
Yes — the board is the full baseball shape, a batting order with a rotation behind it, and both halves count toward the record. An all-bat roster with nothing on the mound does not survive 162; that balance is most of the game.
Both. The archive runs from 1871 to the newest completed seasons, with every card rated against its own era — so a current ace and a dead-ball workhorse can share a rotation on level terms.
Same dare, longer schedule. The 82-0 challenge asks an NBA starting five to win every game of its season; this board asks a lineup and a rotation to do it nearly twice as many times. If you came from the basketball side, this is where the perfect season gets harder.
You can — one ballplayer instead of a roster: the MLB career simulator runs him from the farm to a last September, judged by the record book rather than a 162-0 scoreboard. Same archive, one uniform at a time.
Nothing in American sport is written down further back than this. The record opens in 1871, before the mound was where it is now, and a perfect season is drafted across all of it.
64 clubs, and each is split into the eras it actually fielded — the deadball years and the modern game are separate spins from the same city.
Gold Gloves for the leather and TSN or Baseball Magazine selection for the bat, plus the weekly honours the sport has handed out since the wire-service years. Over 162 games the glove citations end up mattering more than they look on the card.
355 of them, and Cooperstown is on the board. A plaque is a verdict on a whole career, though, and this is a single-season draft: the 1911 version of a Hall of Famer and the 1919 version are different cards, and only one of them wins you games.
