BL West
Denver Coors 532-440 4x Playoffs 1x WS Appearance (2022, 2024)
Franchise Player: SS Matt “Litterbug” Knouse .320/.382/.441 54 HR 500RBI 26.4 WAR
555th Overall 4x GG 3x AS 1x SS

Litterbug can pride himself on being one of the biggest baddest fictional players in the FBA. He’s quiet off the field, but he makes the crowds at Coors Field (Yes, that Coors Field) ooh and ahh with his skills on the infield.

Las Vegas Krazy Bread 454-519 1x Playoffs
Franchise Player: CF Mike Trout .276/.428/.549 237HR 619RBI 42.5 WAR 1st Overall 2x MVP 6x AS 6x SS 2x GG

Prison Mike has played top tier baseball for Vegas, but just like Lindor on the Ramen- hasn’t had the supporting cast to really propel him into the postseason. The only good players on the Krazy Bread are young prospects and winning now doesnt really fit their timeline. Trout hits the market this season, so look out for Trout in a new jersey come the trade deadline before free agency.

San Diego McNuggets 399-573 0x Playoffs
Franchise Player: RF Jarred Kelenic .285/.382/.467 84 HR 323 RBI
3x GG 1x AS 1130th Overall

McNuggets fans watched the boys in red hit their fifth 90+ loss season last year. And to make things worse, they traded away their budding franchise player this past season- while he was in an MVP caliber season. (His BL 2024 stat line:91 GP .342/.448/.619 21 HR 74 RBI 5.6 WAR) Even worse, the trade sent Kelenic to one of the other sad FBA clubs: the Gelato. It’s safe to say that the McNugs have the most resentful fanbase in the league.


Phoenix Sun Chips 429-544 1x Playoffs
Franchise Player: SS Trea Turner .271/.336/.432 106 HR 411 RBI
3x AS 1x SS 213rd Overall

Phoenix rounds out this mostly unnotable division, barely reaching .500 in their winning season, and reaching the playoffs as an 81-82 team is not something they can be proud of. Trea has been a serviceable shortstop in his FBA career, but he can’t wait to get out of Phoenix in the upcoming offseason.
