34 Former Division I Players on LCS Rosters 

 

There are 34 former Division I players among the 100 major leaguers listed on League Championship Series rosters, including former Ole Miss hurler Lance Lynn (right) of the St. Louis Cardinals. That is a decrease from last season's total of 40 and from the 38 in 2011. There were 30 in 2010.

 

The St. Louis Cardinals lead the way with 12 former Division I players on their 25-man LCS roster. The Boston Red Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers both have eight, followed by the Detroit Tigers with six.

 

There are 28 Division I schools which have at least one alum in the postseason. Florida State tops the list with three (Randy Choate and Shane Robinson of St. Louis, Stephen Drew of Boston). There are four schools with two players: Arizona State, Florida, Texas, UC Santa Barbara.

 

There are links to lists divided by school and by Major League teams.
