Through August 31 of every year, there are 750 Major League Baseball players: 25 players on each of the 30 Major League teams. Beginning September 1 teams are allowed to expand their active rosters up to 40.
MLB rosters include 40 players, but only 25 may be active at any time during the regular season.
On September 1st of each season, teams may increase their active roster up to the 40 player limit until the end of the regular season. Most teams, however, increase their active roster by less than the 40 player limit.
There are 30 Major League Baseball teams and each can have 25 players on their roster at any time, which would be 750 players. This does not account for those players that would be on the disabled list and therefore not count against the 25 man roster.
It is a different number every year. It all depends on the talent level.

A farm team, or feeder team, generally refers to a team or club whose role it is to provide experience and training for young players, with an agreement that any successful players will move on to a bigger side at a certain point. This system can be implemented in many ways, both formally and informally. The term is also used as a metaphor for any organization or activity that serves as a training ground for higher-level endeavors. For instance, sometimes business schools are referred to as "farm clubs" for the world of business. In the United States and Canada, Minor League Baseball teams operate under strict franchise contracts with their major-league teams. The vast majority are privately owned, and therefore can and often do switch affiliation, but players on their rosters are completely under the control of their affiliated Major League Baseball teams. Virtually all major-league players worked their way up through the minor leagues first, with the rare exceptions usually only being Japanese baseball players. Teams are usually in smaller cities, and players are paid much less. The existence of the minor league system is partly due to major league baseball's ability to include a reserve clause in the contracts with minor league baseball players, which gives a major league team exclusive rights to a player even after the contract has expired. This is possible in baseball because of a 1922 Supreme Court decision, Federal Baseball Club v. National League, which grants baseball a special immunity from antitrust laws.
