Oregon’s dependable lefty with starter-to-bullpen flexibility
In the 2025 season, Ian Umlandt emerged as a high-trust arm for Oregon, going 6-2 with a 2.55 ERA in 18 appearances and 5 starts, while also ranking 16th nationally in ERA and 50th in complete games. His calling card is versatility: he can steady a bullpen, spot-start, and still limit damage with solid control and a heavy workload profile. He’s also a proven returner who chose to stay in Eugene, which says plenty about his fit, competitiveness, and value to a pitching staff looking for reliability with a little bite.
