MLB Team Builder — Build Your Own MLB Roster With Any Player, Free
The Baseball NUT team builder lets you build an MLB roster from any players you want, current or retired, from any season, and then sets the best batting order for that team. Start from a real club’s regulars or from an empty roster. It is free and needs no account.
How to Build an MLB Team in Five Steps
Start From a Real MLB Roster
Loading a team brings in its regulars with each hitter’s season average, on-base and slugging. From there it is your roster: drop a slumping bat, add a free agent you want your club to sign, or see how one trade changes the order.
Add Any Player From Any Season
Search covers retired players too, not just this year’s. Pick the season you want and his line for that year comes with him, so a dream team can put 1927 Babe Ruth next to this year’s best hitters.
For the all-time version, see the best MLB lineup of all time, built in this tool.
Team Ideas to Build
The 2026 All-NUT team
The builder page lists the top hitter at every position by 2026 season NUT, ready to drop in. It is led by Yordan Alvarez at DH and Pete Crow-Armstrong in center field.
Your team plus one signing
Load your club, add the free agent you want, and see where he bats and who drops out of the order.
The best lineup in baseball
Start from the No. 1 offense in MLB by NUT. All 30 are ranked in Best Lineups in MLB 2026.
A rec-league or Little League team
Switch to Manual or CSV / Paste and enter each player’s average, on-base and slugging. The same batting-order logic works at any level.
How the Batting Order Is Set
The top two spots go to your best on-base hitters, because they bat most often. Spots three through five get the best mix of power and contact. The rest follow by overall hitting. The full method is in the batting order optimizer guide.
