If by 'rough' you mean 'better', then yes.

I don't know exactly what Oregon has coming in this year, but I think it's going to be tough to be better with all that they are losing.

I made a similar post in the "major/minor league ducks" thread (I think) so forgive my repetitiveness, but this is college baseball. Most fans focus on what their team loses but rarely on what the teams they play lose, and I think that's what's happening here. Every team in the Pac-10 had heavy losses to the draft/graduation. In fact, Oregon got through the draft better than most. If Serna signs (which I guess seems likely?) we'll return 7 of our 9 position players, and we should be returning two weekend starters (Kuedell/Jones). That's better than a lot of teams. Losing Tyler Anderson and Madison Boer sucks, sure, but the majority of the Pac-10 lost their aces, too, including Utah.

We need to focus on figuring out the bullpen during Fall ball, but I would be shocked -- shocked -- if the Ducks don't return to the postseason next year. We return a ton.
