You might still be scraping windshields and slipping on ice, but baseball will be here before you know it. In fact, with the Ohio State baseball team making annual stops in warmer locations to get a jump on the season, the Buckeyes will begin the season in just a little over three weeks’ time.
So yeah, it’s approaching fast. So much so that Baseball America has come out with its preseason college baseball rankings, and Ohio State has made it just inside the top 25 and No. 24.
As usual, there’s not too much respect for the Big Ten. Michigan is the only other conference team ranked — albeit pretty high at No. 8.
Buckeyes check it at No. 2⃣4⃣ in the @BaseballAmerica Preseason Top 25#GoBucks https://t.co/oyuSsR283d

In case you are planning on making the trip south to get out of late winter/early spring’s chill, you can plan ahead and know that the Buckeyes are set to take part in the annual Snowbird Baseball Classic from February 14-16 in Port Charlotte, FL.
