It would be great to have an official list ...
... such as the official 40-man list that I can find at Baseball-Reference.com.
Why doesn't MLB provide that?
And also, how is it that d1baseball.com can't add the columns and get 810 as I did. I know I'm old, so I did the math twice -- once using Excel. The lists by conference or by school totalled 810. d1baseball.com tells us 806.
Also, I'm somewhat surprised that more than half of the "up to 1800" total did not play college ball. But I'm not going to do that research.
