University of Vermont Baseball Players Who Made it to the Major Leagues

Baseball Almanac is pleased to present a comprehensive chart of every University of Vermont alumnus who played baseball at the University of Vermont AND made it to the Major League level.

"I don't think I was overlooked or operated in obscurity. I was just never very comfortable in the public eye. I didn't know a lot about the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame until I was nominated but I've come to learn a lot about it since and this is truly and honour." - Kirk McCaskill in London Free Press (June 29, 2003)
