Welcome

Welcome to the Premier Baseball Association league web blog. Established in 2019, utilizing the OOTP21 game engine, this is a fictional league for the amusement, enjoyment and camaraderie of like-minded lovers of the game of baseball.

We use StatsPlus.net/pbal to track league results, standings, statistics, rosters, finances, and so much more.

We provide helpful video tutorials on various league topics.

An exciting, hard-fought eighth season is complete, and here is our league and over-all 2026 champions:

Paris Saint-Germain

Most often during game days, the commissioner will use the “Real Time Sim” feature in StatsPlus so that we can follow the progress of games during the simulation. That link is here: https://statsplus.net/pbal/reports/news/html/rt_sim/index.html

During the playoffs, the commissioner will often broadcast games using the league Twitch account here: https://www.twitch.tv/pbal_commissioner

PBA League Overview

Each of our owners will have a team in the Major League, as well as maintaining a minor league system consisting of AAA, AA, A, and Rookie Ball teams. Each owner named and creatived their own 50,000 seat ballpark (with a maximum seating capacity of 60,000 seats).

The PBA consists of two leagues of 12 teams each:

  • American Revolution League
  • French Revolution League

Feeder Leagues will consist of:

  • High School Teams (56 teams, a pair of 28 teams leagues). High School kids will be 14 thru 17 years old, and at 17 years old be eligible to be drafted. High School kids that go undrafted or unsigned should head off to 4 years of college and be eligible for the draft once again.
  • College Teams (96 teams in college, a pair of 48 teams leagues). College kids will be 18 through 21 and at 21 be eligible to be drafted.

Roster Limits will be required to be maintained during the season, approximately April 1 thru the end of the World Series. The limit is the maximum, but you should ensure that you have enough players at each level to avoid the dreaded GHOST players AND over taxation of your minor league affiliates.

  • PBA – 26 Man Roster
  • AAA – 35 Man Roster
  • AA – 35 Man Roster
  • A – 35 Man Roster
  • R – 40 Man Roster
  • INT COMP – 200 (Note: once you hit the 200 max, you will not be able to add any more scout finds or International Complex Free Agents.)
