About

My name is Colby Woodmansee and this is The Woody Report – a college baseball notebook

I watch the game with Omaha in mind. Arms. Depth. Teams that don’t beat themselves.

This isn’t rankings for clicks or hot takes for engagement. It’s about identifying which teams can actually survive a regional, handle a super, and win in June.

I played shortstop at Arizona State, was an All-American, and was drafted by the New York Mets. That background shapes how I watch the game — especially pitching usage, infield defense, and roster construction over a long season.

I’ll write when something’s worth writing about. Some weeks that’s a lot. Some weeks it’s nothing.

If you’re watching college baseball year-round and thinking ahead to Omaha, you’re in the right place.
