The following is the list of players on the Cleveland Buckeyes all-time roster. These are Cleveland Buckeyes players who appeared in at least one game for the Buckeyes while they were based either in Cleveland from 1942 to 1948 and 1950, Cincinnati in 1942, or Louisville in 1949.
On-going research continuously discovers unreported or misreported games (and the affected players), while some games and players may be lost forever. Therefore, some Negro league players' affiliations will likely remain incomplete and possibly disputed.
