RogueDuck Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Oregon baseball already circling the drain. It's just about time to pull the plug on Horton and his small ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glduck Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 i have no problem with small ball. horton even backed off of it last year and we finished in the middle of the conference in sacrifices (as opposed to leading the nation). oregon's problem lately is 100% talent. we have none.

All Hail Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Cal goes 2-1 against a good Cal Poly team. Cal has 0 returning starters in the field and 1 returning SP from last years rotations. Team is young as fuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogueDuck Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I'd say getting players to Oregon, but Oregon State doesnt have this problem He's landed a top 10 class, and some other very good classes. Still hasn't done anything though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glduck Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 baseball recruiting is nutty. our very first class was #2 in the nation because we signed 25 players. we've had other solidly-rated classes and the top 4-5 players each year all jumped straight to pro ball. we've had a team for 8 years (just started our 9th) and we've made the tournament in 5 of those seasons. we've only had one losing season, our first year. we've been productive, the postseason success just hasn't been there. only one super regional appearance. things are trendy downward, though. the talent level has really gone downhill. we've cornered the market on small, weak-hitting infielders. we lost consecutive aces to tommy john surgery and neither were the same afterward, and we just don't have the depth of a power school to overcome those losses. our friday/saturday rotation guys this year, based on previous seasons and early returns from this past weekend, are *awful*. we split a 4 game series @ fresno state last weekend, which is actually a little better than i was expecting. it's still going to be a long year.

Scscsc89 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Good summary of why following college baseball is hard. probably true of all baseball that isnt MLB. I've come to the comfortable compromise of trying to attend a single game when USC visits the Bay Area every year & following the postseason when they (infrequently) make it. Anything more just feels like work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azgreg Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Arizona baseball loses it's first and falls to 10-1. Arizona softball wins today and improves to 18-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glduck Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 oregon baseball is 6-4 after taking 2/3 from an always strong mississippi state program who obliterated us in starksville last year. ducks have yet to drop a series this year, which is well beyond my expectations. i didn't think we had much talent but this freshman class is the best we've had in years, and we're using 5 frosh in the everyday lineup + practically our entire bullpen. oregon softball is #4 in the country and 19-0.
