    How many alumni of your college are in MLB?

    As of May 25, the South Carolina Gamecocks had six alumni currently playing on MLB teams: Bradley (Boston); Brian Roberts ( NYY); Steve Tolleson (Toronto); Steve Pearce ( Baltimore); Justin Smoak (Seattle); and Billy Buckner ( San Diego). Buckner was designated for assignment after one start, and Roberts is also an alum of North Carolina, before he transferred to South Carolina to finish his playing career.

    What other colleges have multiple current alumni playing in mlb? I think I read that Vanderbilt has four.

    Cal State Fullerton, currently 5...Khris Davis (MIL), Reed Johnson (MIA), Justin Turner (LAD), Kurt Suzuki (MIN) and Vinnie Pestano (CLE), although he is shuffling between CLE and AAA.

    Have a couple of guys who may make their debut this season, Christian Colon and Gary Brown.

    Road to Omaha starts Friday...If SC and Virginia advance, that will be one of the best Supers...Good luck to your Cocks.

    Haha, thank you sir! I did my undergraduate there in 2001! Haven't been on that campus for awhile. I did see a few of the people who lived in my dorm at the time who were on the baseball team posting about it on FB. UWW is on quite the run this year in D3 sports
