🏆 The Best MLB Players to Draft
These all-time greats consistently rate as the top picks in the simulator:
- Babe Ruth — The Sultan of Swat. The greatest offensive player in baseball history, period.
- Ted Williams — The last player to hit .400. A war-interrupted career that still stands alone.
- Willie Mays — The best all-around player ever. Hit, run, throw, field — he did everything at the highest level.
- Hank Aaron — 755 home runs and a consistency that no one has ever matched across 23 seasons.
- Barry Bonds — The greatest peak of any hitter: four consecutive 100+ walk seasons, including 232 in 2004.
- Walter Johnson — The Big Train. 417 wins and a fastball that defined a generation of pitching.
- Sandy Koufax — Four straight ERA titles. Four straight strikeout titles. The most dominant stretch any pitcher has ever had.
📊 Why 162-0 Is Impossible

What is an MLB draft simulator?
An MLB draft simulator lets you select players from any team and era to assemble your dream lineup, then run a simulation to see how that team performs over a full season. Franchise Lab's simulator covers all-time MLB history.
Can I draft players from different eras?
Yes — the All-Time Draft mode has zero era restrictions. Put Babe Ruth in the same lineup as Mike Trout. Build the rotation with Sandy Koufax and Roger Clemens pitching back-to-back.

Completely free. No account, no download, no payment. Open it in your browser and start drafting.
