Yesterday at 10:05 AM1 day Administrator No. With the first weekends of baseball completed with Our Beloved Ducks at 8-0…I thought I’d offer some thoughts about this year’s team and more pleasant surprises than I ever would have anticipated. Sure, these first opponents are nothing like what Oregon has ahead on the schedule (like right away next week), but we know so little about the team. Thus the ...2026 Oregon Baseball: So Many Pleasant Surprises! Two Sites: FishDuck and the Our Beloved Ducks forum, The only "Forum with Decorum!" And All-Volunteer? What a wonderful community of Duck fans!

23 hours ago23 hr No. Gotta question Mr. Fishduck,I thought with the new scholarship rules that teams were limited to how many players could be on the team and no walk-ons allowed.How can the Ducks have 23 on the pitching staff?What am I missing?Btw, great article. Thanks for the info.
22 hours ago22 hr Administrator No. I have a hazy understanding of the rules, but I know that up to 34 scholarships can be given, and that is also the roster limit. So they can be piece-meal the way they used to do it. For example giving a half-scholarship, and some NIL besides. Apparently we had to cut some good players that Waz wanted on the squad due to the 34 man roster limit.Home run helmet! Mr. FishDuck
1 hour ago1 hr No. College baseball roster limit: 34, includes both scholarship and walk on players. Teams can offer up to 34 scholarships. Exceptions: Some programs potentially operating under a 40 man roster limit, if they opted out of certain House settlement terms. Designated Student Athletes (DSA). Existing players with a DSA tag may allow teams to exceed the 34 man limit temporarily as they finish their careers. According to the Duck baseball website, they currently have 39 players on their roster. Of this number, 23 players are listed as pitchers. However, three of these players, Naulivou Lauaki Jr., Hudson Carvalho and Cooper Markham are listed as pitchers/infielders.After eight games played, 18 pitchers and 16 infield/outfield players saw the field. That's 34 players. The five players who haven't made an appearance are Tyler Wick, infielder and four players who are pitchers. They are Jonah Barkoff, Blake Crawford, Tyler Jones and Cooper Strawn. It will be interesting to see if these guys play any games this season. If they do, then they will be over the 34 roster limit.
