Oregon State baseball began last week in the top five of two major polls. However, the past seven days have been a bit of a roller coaster with two unexpected losses - one to UTRGV out of the Southland, and one to the Big West's Cal State Northridge . The Beavers also got the unfortunate news that their ace and early favorite to be the 2027 top MLB Draft choice Dax Whitney's season is over, and potentially more. Whitney is set to have UCL surgery in the near future. That news, compounded with the losses, undoubtedly played a role in their small, but noticeable, drop in the major polls this week.
