Realignment

New programs

Five new programs joined Division I for the 2009 season. Three programs, Bryant, North Dakota, and SIU Edwardsville, joined from Division II.[1][2][3] The two other Division I members, Oregon and Cal State Bakersfield, were new varsity baseball programs.[4][5]

Dropped programs

Hawaii-Hilo, which had competed as a Division I independent, dropped to Division II.[6]

Conference changes

The Big South Conference added two new members. Gardner–Webb, previously of the Atlantic Sun Conference, and Presbyterian, previously a Division I independent, both joined the conference.[7]

Two conferences add a single member. Oregon's new program joined the Pacific-10 Conference.[4] Samford left the Ohio Valley Conference to join the Southern Conference.[7]

Four schools became Division I independents− Bryant, from the Division II Northeast-10 Conference; North Dakota, from the Division II North Central Conference; SIU Edwardsville, from the Division II Great Lakes Valley Conference; and Cal State Bakersfield, in its first season of varsity intercollegiate baseball.[1][2][5]

Preseason rankings

After a 49–19 season in 2008, the LSU Tigers were ranked #1 prior to the season. Defending World Series champion Fresno State was ranked #19.
