2019 BYU Cougars baseball team
The 2019 BYU Cougars baseball team represented Brigham Young University in the 2019 NCAA Division I baseball season. Mike Littlewood acted in his seventh season as head coach of the Cougars. After being picked to finish first in the conference in 2018, BYU suffered through a season with many injuries on both sides of play. The end result was a 22–28 season with BYU finishing tied with Pacific at 11–17 for ninth place in conference play. The result led Littlewood to clean house in the off-season, and BYU enters 2019 with 20 new players on the roster: 17 newcomers and 3 returning missionaries. The Cougars were picked to finish sixth in the WCC Pre-season poll.
