That's not what I said at all. I said her not accepting their way of life could POTENTIALLY cause resentment and locker room distractions. I didn't say the players had a problem with her beliefs. The players don't make roster decisions, the coaches and managers do. So it's likely the coaches and managers left her off to avoid that distraction and better team chemistry.
So, why was she left off again, in your opinion? Was it because her beliefs triggered her teammates and made them resentful and unaccepting of her?
Hint: This is being persecuted for one's beliefs.

The fact that none of the players in question have said anything about this issue should indicate what a non-story this is.
Right.

Yes, the one who hates gays is the persecuted one.

I stated that opinion in the post you've now cited a few times. I think the coaches made the decision to limit the chances of any potential resentment that could damage team chemistry.
I've even said a couple of other times that I think she was good enough to make the roster.

She quit the team
Shouldn’t that have some effect on her?
So idk how you can say she was blackballed.
