Spring training rosters are available from a number of on-line sources. The most comprehensive listing I've found so far is from USA Today. Unfortunately, very few of them provide uniform numbers for the complete Spring Training rosters, especially for the non-roster invitees.
You need a uniform numbers for field identification purposes, especailly when watching practices. As you can see, this list is sorted by uniform number. When players warm up before games they often wear mesh workout jerseys that have numbers but not player names. Print out the list, bring it with you, and you won't have to mutter to the guy next to you, "Who's number thirty-two?"
