Checking in with Major League Baseball Rebels

As of now, Ole Miss has five former baseball players who are currently playing in Major League Baseball. Here is a breakdown of each player and how they are doing so far.

Grae Kessinger (Houston Astros)

Grae Kessinger played for the Rebels from 2017-2019 and was drafted by the Houston Astros as the 68 overall pick. Kessinger has been in the major league for less than a year as he was called up in June 2023 —only a season after the Astros won the World Series.

In the 2024 MLB season, Kessinger has had nine at-bats with no hits so far.
