Three players − Brodie Johnston, Ryker Waite and Aiden Stillman − were selected for the USA Baseball Collegiate National Team training camp. From the training camp, a roster will be selected to take part in the World Collegiate Baseball Championship in Taiwan. All three players are also slated to go to the Cape Cod League, though some Team USA players opt against going to the Cape.
Seven additional players will be playing in the Cape Cod League after just five returning players played on the Cape in 2025, with many players instead remaining on campus over the summer.
Here is a list of players from Vanderbilt who will be playing summer ball. The original list was provided by the program. New additions to the roster will be compiled using summer league rosters and stats.
This story will be updated.
