MLB Rotisserie Scoreboard

This site compares all 30 MLB teams using a traditional rotisserie-style scoring system. Instead of only looking at standard standings, it ranks clubs across a set of hitting and pitching categories and assigns points based on where each team places in each category.

On the hitting side, teams are measured by Hits, Runs, Home Runs, RBI, and Stolen Bases. On the pitching side, teams are measured by Wins, Saves, Strikeouts, ERA, and WHIP.

The result is a daily scoreboard that shows which teams are building the strongest overall statistical profile across baseball, not just which teams have the best win-loss record.

In the full MLB view, the team that leads a category earns 30 points, second place earns 29, and so on until the last-place team earns 1 point.

In the American League and National League views, the scoring is recalculated inside that league only. Since there are 15 teams in each league, first place earns 15 points and last place earns 1 point.

Most categories reward higher totals. ERA and WHIP are reverse-scored, so lower values earn more points.

Traditional standings tell you who is winning games. Rotisserie scoring tells you how well-rounded a team's statistical profile is. A club might be dominant in power, speed, or run prevention even if that does not perfectly match its place in the standings.

This makes it easier to spot teams that are thriving in specific areas, teams that are surprisingly balanced, and teams whose overall record may hide meaningful strengths or weaknesses.

The site is designed to pull team-level batting and pitching stats from MLB data and refresh on a daily schedule. That keeps the scoreboard current throughout the season without depending on manual updates.

Team logos are stored locally in the site's public/logos directory so the interface stays fast and does not rely on external image hosts.

This project is meant to make MLB team stats more fun to explore and easier to compare.
