I went back and checked-- Brown's 2023 and 2024 baseball teams' rosters had below the maximum 34 players. So Pichardo didn't take a spot from anyone (unless Brown unilaterally opted for 30 players for whatever crazy reason).

The current squad is at the maximum 34 players. Anyone have any idea if Brown cut anyone?

And the basis for the statement there is a maximum limit on Ivy baseball rosters is what exactly? Incidentally, Columbia’s roster is about 40, and I don’t believe this is the first year it’s roster exceeded 34.

I was told by a father whose son plays Ivy baseball that it's 34.

Apparently, the old rule was 35, it expanded to 40 to accommodate the COVID kids, and now it's down to 34.

Having opted out of the settlement, I believe the Ivies are not subject to all of those NCAA roster limits, which extend well beyond baseball. Others may know more.

Otherwise, Columbia will have to cut a good number of guys, and Cornell and Penn will have to cut a guy or two.

Everyone else looks like they have 34 or fewer on the roster.

And if you're right, then my original point still stands--Pichardo didn't take a spot from anyone.
