Frequently Asked Questions

How does Goat Vote determine the all-time baseball ranking?

We tally every top-ten vote our members have cast, awarding points based on rank (first is worth the most, tenth is worth the least).

Which players are eligible?

Everyone who ever played is eligible, regardless of era, league, nationality, or gender. You can add anyone who's missing.

What are the criteria?

That's up to you. Rings, peak, longevity, numbers, awards, the eye test: every member weighs them differently, and the standings are the sum of all those calls.

Can I vote more than once?

Absolutely! A free account gets you one ranked ballot per day.
