Official Recruiting Thread for the Pro Baseball Circuit! A 24-Team Daily-Sim Fictional League

[jpeters1734]

The Pro Baseball Circuit is a long-running fictional daily-sim league built around fast seasons, competitive balance, strong league identity, and active ownership. With 22 regular season sims consisting of one 4-game series each, the PBC delivers quick progression without losing the day-to-day immersion of team building and roster management.

Why the PBC Stands Out

The PBC is designed to feel different from a standard MLB-style online league while still keeping the core baseball experience intact. The league emphasizes competitive balance, long-term team building, active ownership, and strong league identity.

Competitive Balance Matters

The PBC uses an above-minimum salary cap and balanced financial structure to prevent large-market financial dominance. Every franchise has a legitimate path to contention.

Fast Seasons Without Losing Immersion

Each sim covers one 4-game series, allowing seasons to move quickly while still maintaining meaningful roster management and long-term strategy.

Free Agency Actually Matters

Traditional contract extensions do not exist in the PBC. Players regularly reach free agency, creating active offseasons and difficult roster decisions.

Retention Systems for Homegrown Stars

The PBC includes unique systems like:

• Prospect Promotion Incentives (PPI)

• Face of the Franchise (FoF) tags

These systems reward teams that successfully draft, develop, and retain their own core players.

Anti-Tanking Draft Lottery

Draft lottery odds are influenced not only by team performance, but also by league participation and activity. Consistent engagement matters.

Active League Expectations

The PBC is a structured and active league. GMs are expected to:

• Export consistently
• Read announcements
• Participate in league voting and discussion
• Remain engaged throughout the season
