About this episode
After a very extended hiatus, Shotgun Spratling is back on The D1Baseball Podcast feed with his Sidearm Delivery episodes. In this first episode of 2025, Shotgun heads virtually up to Corvallis to chat with Oregon State head coach Mitch Canham. Later, D1Baseball national writer Mike Rooney joins the show to talk about the diaspora of the former Pac-12, getting his take on Oregon State as an independent as well as where the other former Pacific-12 programs will fit in their new conferences. We’ll also take a look at some of the intriguing mid major programs on the West Coast this year, including UC Santa Barbara looking to continue its dominance in the Big West.
