Go Beavs? A program in decline…Oregon ranked #11 and OSU now not even ranked. Need a sweep here. Minimum 2 of 3. I don’t have faith in Canham managing well enough to get that done. Hope to be wrong. To me this seems like Ralph Miller transitioning to Anderson right before our eyes.

On a side note, OSU should never hire anyone named Anderson/Andersen.

So Mitch came back from a disastrous loss and beat up on a far inferior opponent. That’s what is expected of OSU baseball, so a bit of a nothing burger, but it’s better than the alternative.

UCLA looks to be on par with us, so this is going to give a gauge where we actually are two-thirds through the season. I’m willing to change on Mitch as he changes. If he can learn the basics of managing in-game and players (instead of being their psychologist, be their leader), then I will change.

Why is everyone okay with Mitch?

I literally had a few minutes all weekend to catch the Beavs, so I tuned in today to watch extra innings. That lasted only about ten minutes because Canham chose to draw in infield in rather than walk the bases loaded and setup the DP. There are so many ways to score a run in that situation that the obvious call is to walk the bases loaded and take your shot with a force at home, strikeout, or the DP. Way better odds on than what he did.

Why are Beaver fans okay with Mitch?

Why is there not outrage over such horrible managing?

Will the media ask tough questions and start to question this guy, or are they going to do the “he’s learning on the job”, “he’s one of us” and all that biased crap?

Mitch has a much needed winning streak going. Some pressure off him for now. This is going to be a tough series with the “Anteaters” being 22-11 and historically very good. “Anteaters” has to be the worst name in history, btw.

It looks like the game will be on ESPN here. That’s the only telecast I’m finding.
