The following is the list of players on the Pittsburgh Crawfords all-time roster. These are Pittsburgh Crawfords players who appeared in at least one game for the Crawfords while they were based either in Pittsburgh from 1931 to 1938, Toledo in 1939, or Indianapolis in 1940.
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.
