A Kentucky pitcher has transferred to Mizzou early this season. I haven't seen anything about Stoddard

Our pitching should be elite this year as Ali and Shelbi should both be all SEC next year. Where are these rumors about Pleasant? Mckenna Dowell is not the answer for a SS at all. If she does go Alyssa Britio from Oregon should be our top priority. Even to play 2nd next year we should go for her. We could see Raeleen starting at 3B or a freshman. Georgia could start at first. If Shelbi can get her hitting back to 2019 levels we have a great shot at OKC. We should be a top 4 seed in the SECT



I can list a couple kids worth looking at

Jazmyn Rollin - Mizzou- INF
-All SEC freshmen 2019
Hit over .300 her freshmen and sophomore years with 17 home runs first two years.


Hope Brandner- Minnesota- INF
-All Big 10 first team 2019
Hit .359 with 19 home runs as a sophomore in 2019


I can accept mediocre defense if they can hit the ball.

I didnt see the article with Beth talking about the play at 2nd in game two but if the quote i read was accurate, it did not seem like she thought the issue was Tidwell not covering the base. It came across as though she thinks Pleasants was indecisive as to whether she should make the play on her own or toss the ball to Tidwell. If thar is the case....it is not going to have effect on Pleasants that we all want it to have.



I think it was from TigerRag here is the quote

quote:

“Pleasants is deciding whether to take it herself or throw it to Taylor and just didn’t make a good decision,” Torina said. “She’s a freshman and played lights out all year, arguably one of the best we’ll ever have with her career in front of her.”

LSU will likely never have two the caliber of Hoover and Ali at the same time again. The 2015 team was incredible and still fell short. No comparison then to the caliber of players now.

Pick up some good players in portal and it’s game on. Need a table setter and a little punch behind Pleasents to get back to OKC.

Yep, some things won’t change.



I moved to Houston and haven’t made it to the park. I’ve missed so much with COVID. Like everyone else I’m sure. I’ll be back for the 2022 campaign and see who I can rile up!

She throws left-handed, so I doubt this happens...

I don’t want to sound like negative Nancy here but I’m not convinced Dobson is going to “fix” her swing.

Please tell me he’s going to get his walking papers.

There was a rumor circulating before the Supers that she may be leaving.
Homesick?
Will she be wearing a red UH jersey next season?

Anybody know if Coach Torina had her team exit interviews yet? If so, I wonder what the fallout is

Pleasants transferring out would be an unmitigated disaster.

Beth pulling a Mainieri and throwing her under the bus doesn’t help the situation.

She needs to recruit dominant pitchers and get a legit hitting coach.
Her pitchers never get to that “next level”
Or in Wickersham’s case, they have gotten worse.
The hitting has been crap for a few years now.
Pre-conference is all fine and good, then they get to SEC play and the averages nose dive!

I don’t think Dobson is the problem. I think the problem lies with recruiting. They have trouble identifying good hitters at the college level

Wow! Congrats to both. But shocked based on pure numbers. Didn’t think this was even a possibility.
