The number of players on a baseball roster, or squad, varies by league and by the level of organized play.
A Major League Baseball (MLB) team has a roster of 25 players with specific roles. A typical roster features the following players:[20]
Eight position players: the catcher, four infielders, and three outfielders—all of whom play on a regular basis
Five starting pitchers who constitute the team’s pitching rotation or starting rotation
Six relief pitchers, including one closer, who constitute the team’s bullpen (named for the off-field area where pitchers warm up)
One backup, or substitute, catcher
Two backup infielders
Two backup outfielders
One pinch hitter, or a utility player, or a seventh reliever
Most baseball leagues worldwide have the DH rule, including MLB’s American League, Japan’s Pacific League, and Caribbean professional leagues, along with major American amateur organizations.[21] The Central League in Japan and the National League do not have the rule, and high-level minor league clubs connected to National League teams are not required to field a DH.[22]
In leagues that apply the designated hitter rule, a typical team has nine offensive regulars (including the DH), five starting pitchers,[23] seven or eight relievers, a backup catcher, and two or three other reserve players.[24][25]
