If you turned on a Major League Baseball game in 2026, there's a pretty good chance you saw a former Spokane Indians player in action. A total of 53 alums spread across 23 teams made at last one appearance in the big leagues this season, including nearly two dozen with the team's parent club—the Colorado Rockies.
Some, like Cole Carrigg and Kyle Karros, were playing at Avista Stadium as recently as 2024 while others, like Atlanta Braves southpaw Martín Pérez, last suited up for the Indians nearly two decades ago!
