Blog Overview; Major League Baseball Rookie Crop Debut Simulation League powered by Baseball Mogul

Pretty simply I'm a hobby baseball simulation buff. I like PC baseball simulations and replays. I've been playing Diamond Mind Baseball since 1998 on PC, still active in 3 leagues. I play Baseball Mogul 2019 as well. I am using that product to determine which was the single best rookie debut crop of players since 1946, aka post WWII. I take the MLB debuts from each season and put them on one roster in that season in a MLB replay via trade. I chose the Yankees as my team to trade the rookie roster towards. Enjoy. Mike J
