While winter roar with the calendar turning to January, Tennessee baseball is just a few weeks away from starting its preseason practice and just under six weeks away from beginning the 2026 season and the Josh Elander era.
The Vols officially released their 2026 roster late last week. It’s a 39-player roster as the House Settlement and the NCAA rules limit the roster sizes across the sport. Four players that were with Tennessee in the fall are no longer on the roster.
Position players Jaxon Walker, Brennon Seigler and Alex Bedford all entered the transfer portal back in December. Walker and Seigler were both redshirt freshmen while Bedford was a true freshman. Redshirt freshman pitcher Anson Seibert, who missed the entirety of his true freshman season and fall practice due to injury, is taking a leave of absence from the team, GoVols247 Ben McKee reported Friday.
Tennessee’s roster has 18 pitchers, 18 position players and three two-way players. Only 13 players were on Tennessee’s 2025 roster while the Vols added 10 transfers and 16 prep recruits.
Here’s a look at the Vols’ full 2026 roster.
