Baseball America article on Oregon State

The Oregon State baseball team gets some national pub on ESPN and Baseball America. Also, recently they were ranked 6th in the first USA Today Coaches Poll.

ESPN.com - NCAA - Baseball America: Encore in store for Oregon State?

If Tyler Graham, who shifts from left field to center, can replace some of Ellsbury's production at the top of the order, and Barney and senior third baseman Shea McFeely can have the breakout years Oregon State thinks they can, then the Beavers will have enough offense to make them legitimate contenders again.

But after this season is when it will get interesting, because the pitching nucleus will be gone. The Beavers are doing their best to capitalize on their success while they can, installing a new scoreboard this season and raising funds to expand Goss Stadium at Coleman Field in the future. Making another trip to Omaha this year would likely secure their ability to lock up the Pacific Northwest's top recruits, helping sustain the program for the long haul.
