We look forward to learning and continuing to forge our philosophies together. Goldy brings a great understanding of pitching and the application of technology and data to assist the development of our pitching staff. Brad has a passion for the game, this great University and our baseball program.”
Goldberg, a third team All-Big Ten selection in 2013, went 6-1 with a 2.99 earned-run average in 15 starts for the Buckeyes as a senior before being selected in the 10th round of the 2013 Major League Baseball Draft.
“This University and the baseball program have afforded me great opportunities and introduced me to some of my closest friends,” Goldberg said. “I am motivated to provide Coach DeLucia with digestible and relevant data and analytics but even more to cultivate relationships within the team and University. I am elated to come back to wear the scarlet and gray and I can’t thank Coach Beals enough.”
