Arizona Diamondbacks
1 roto title · 29 seasons (1998–2026)
Across 29 seasons, exactly one season has ended with the Arizona Diamondbacks as Roto Champ: 2017. The wait since then is 9 seasons. Their average finish is 16.4 all time, against 15.7 over the last ten seasons, essentially unchanged from its historical level.
The best single roto season in franchise history belongs to AJ Pollock in 2015, worth a 20.9 z-score. Paul Goldschmidt is the franchise’s most persistent roto presence, owning 6 of its 50 best seasons. One quirk worth knowing: the All-Franchise Team below fills strict positions, so Jake McCarthy, Lourdes Gurriel Jr. and Eduardo Escobar all rate above somebody who made it and still missed, purely because their position ran out.
