This is the issue where we attempt to document all the players with a collegiate baseball connection who made their Major League debut in 2016. Among the anomalies in this year’s list is a player drafted from a school he never played for, Andy Burns who attended Arizona State when drafted, but never played a varsity game for the Wildcats and Dustin Mollekin who attended Lethbridge College in Alberta, Canada, but played for a team unofficially affiliated with both the two year and four year colleges in Lethbridge. Accompanying this newsletter are attachments containing corrections, for both Major and Minor League players, to the collegiate information submitted to Base- ball-Reference.

  • Danny Litwhiler, Became One of the Greatest Ballplayers Ever to Adorn a Spartan Uniform
    Michigan State Baseball 2007 Media Guide Michigan State University Elite Spartans Spartan Pride 7 Michigan State Baseball 2007 Media Guide Kirk Gibson Kirk Gibson, who joined the baseball team as a junior in 1978 at the recommendation of head coach Danny Litwhiler, became one of the greatest ballplayers ever to adorn a Spartan uniform. Bringing pure speed and raw talent to every at bat, Gibson possessed power at the plate that was unmatchable. Known for his intensity and tenacity, Gibson played just one season at Michigan State before entering the major league draft, where he was chosen as the No. 1 pick by the Detroit Tigers in 1978. Carrying his fi erce competitiveness with him to the big leagues, Gibson became one of the greatest big-moment players in baseball history. A Waterford, Mich., native, Gibson earned fi rst-team All-America honors for the Spartans in both baseball and football in 1978, hitting .390 with 16 homers and 52 RBI in the spring and catching 42 passes for 806 yards (19.2 avg.) with seven touchdowns in the fall. In one of the most historic moments at Kobs Field, Gibson launched a home run that cleared the trees and the Red Cedar River, landing on Adams Field (formerly known as Landon Field) for a blast measuring 550 feet. A four-year letterman in football (1975-78), he amassed 112 career receptions for 2,347 yards and 24 TDs. Highly recruited in both sports, Gibson opted to enter the June 1978 MLB draft. Detroit Tigers manager Sparky Anderson dubbed Gibson as “the next Mickey Mantle.” Nagged by injuries in his fi rst few seasons, the former MSU all-star broke onto the scene in 1984, helping guide the Tigers to a World Series Championship.
