Current Savannah Bananas players

The roster cards below are the fastest way to browse the current Bananas player profiles. Where available, each card shows the player’s position, jersey number, hometown and a link to an individual profile. Because roster moves can happen during a season, use the official roster link near the bottom of this page when you need to confirm a late change.

How to read the Savannah Bananas roster

The Bananas roster mixes familiar baseball positions with flexible roles that fit Banana Ball. The official roster uses short labels such as C for catcher, OF for outfield, INF for infield, UTL for utility, 1B for first base, SS for shortstop, DH for designated hitter and P for pitcher. It also lists specialized team roles such as DR and separate coaching positions.

Those labels describe the roster role shown by the team; they should not be treated as a guarantee that a player will appear at that exact position in every game. Banana Ball lineups can change from matchup to matchup, and utility players in particular can give a coaching staff more options.

Bananas players fans often look for

The current official roster includes a number of long-running and widely searched Bananas names. Bill LeRoy is listed as #1, catcher; Jackson Olson as #8, infielder; Kyle Luigs as #12, pitcher; Dakota Albritton as #14, utility; and Kelsie Whitmore as #33, pitcher. These are roster listings rather than a ranking of players, and the directory above is the better place to check the full current group.

Other current roster entries span catchers, outfielders, infielders, utility players, designated hitters and a large pitching group. That balance matters in Banana Ball because the game still relies on baseball skill even while the rules, pace and entertainment presentation differ from traditional baseball.

Savannah Bananas coaches and team roles

The official roster page includes coaching and support roles alongside players. Tyler Gillum is listed as Head Coach, while Ryan Kellogg is listed as Pitching Coach. The same current roster also lists Bryce Stober and Adam Virant as coaches and Reginald Horton as Inspiration Coach.

Keeping coaches on the roster page is useful because fans searching for the Bananas “team” are not always looking only for active hitters and pitchers. The official roster treats these roles as part of the current team presentation, while the player directory remains focused on player profiles.

Roster vs starting lineup: what is the difference?

A roster is the broader list of players available to the team. A starting lineup is the group and batting order used for a particular game. Seeing a player on the Savannah Bananas roster therefore does not mean that player will start every matchup or appear in the same role every night.

This distinction is especially useful when following a touring schedule. The Bananas can play multiple opponents across different cities, and the lineup may change while the overall roster remains largely the same. For the next opponent, venue and game time, use the Savannah Bananas schedule.

Jersey numbers, positions and hometowns

Jersey numbers are one of the easiest ways to identify players at a Banana Ball game, especially when you are seeing the team in person for the first time. The official roster pairs numbers with names and position labels, while many entries also include batting/throwing information and hometowns.

Core roster fields stay concise. If a detail is unavailable on a player profile, it is left blank rather than filled with an assumption. For more personality-focused details such as social handles, colleges or fun facts, the official Savannah Bananas roster provides the richer first-party player cards.

Where to find Savannah Bananas stats

The roster answers who is on the team; statistics answer what happened on the field. Use the Banana Ball stats guide for the statistical areas available on this site, the results page for completed games and the standings for the current Bananas team record relative to the rest of the BBCL.

For official individual leaderboards or definitions that may change during the season, confirm the latest information through Banana Ball’s official stats resources rather than assuming a roster card is a stats page.

How often can the Savannah Bananas roster change?

Rosters are time-sensitive. A player can be added, removed or have a role updated, and coaching listings can also change. That is why this page avoids presenting the current roster as a permanent historical list. The player cards give you a convenient snapshot, while the first-party roster remains the final check for a current-season change.

If you notice a mismatch between a player card here and the official team roster, the official roster should be treated as the source to verify first. A roster update should not require a new page URL; the same Savannah Bananas roster page can continue serving fans as the underlying player information is corrected.
