2013 Oregon Baseball Preview thumbnail

What follows is a general overview of the upcoming 2013 season. I’d consider the depth charts below a rough draft, as positions and playing time can be very fluid the first month or so. Things could look very different by the end of the season and, heck, they could look very different by the time [...]

Diamond Ducks: #5 Oregon Sweeps Seattle U, Civil War Looms thumbnail

6-0, 5-4, 6-1. These are your scores from the past weekend – all wins. We’ll get back to these in a moment. Perhaps of more importance to you and the program, however, were games in which Oregon had nothing to do with anything: USC 8, Arizona 4, and California 6, UCLA 5. Oregon is now [...]

I wrote down some thoughts after each game finished over the last week. These thoughts and a nickel will buy you something for five cents, but thanks for reading them all the same. Oregon 3, Oregon State 2 Non-league wins aren’t supposed to feel this good, right? Maybe – sweeping Vandy sure was fun. But [...]

As you may have noticed, singular guy who probably reads this blog, I don’t really like doing detailed game recaps. If you’re reading this you probably already know what happened, and if you’re reading this you definitely have access to a newspaper’s website that can break down the games into their nitty gritty details. Here’s [...]

I wrote the following over three nights. I don’t usually do that – I like to do a general write-up on Sunday night, taking in the series as a whole – but I had enough free time this weekend to three separate recaps.)  (Image courtesy of Oregon Daily Emerald) Friday – UO 4, Cal 1 Tonight was [...]

Diamond Ducks: WSU Series Goes Awry thumbnail

(Image from Daily Emerald) Baseball is a ridiculously unpredictable game. Oregon is a good, but hardly elite, team with occasionally great pitching, a weak line-up, and good-but-not-dominant relief pitching. What’s that all add up to? Frustrating unpredictability.   I alluded to as much last week. This is a team capable of going 7-2 when faced against a [...]


Diamond Ducks: Five Down, Five to Go

Oregon is not supposed to be this good. 24-10? That other team in the Willamette Valley, maybe. But not the Ducks. No, these Ducks lost too much in the offseason to be 24-10, and replaced it with too much youth, and suffered too many injuries, and can’t hit the ball, and are only playing baseball [...]
