Don't forget to add in the Rocha factor, just as Sam if Rocha made her a better pitcher. Or Kelly Maxwell

There is a difference between what is scored as an error and what plays need to be made to win championships. If the play she bobbled against Oregon wasn't scored an error thats poor scoring, or if it was the one against Texas not scored an error, same thing. Both need to be made. The ball...

I don't think Kasadi can play left field. She was a capable right fielder, not as many balls hit that way, but the last 3 errors she made especially the first one and extra especially tonight cannot happen. She had a miserable series, it seems to happen to someone every year, this year it was...

I don't think its fair to say neither of our incoming freshmen will contribute, and Caya Smith who was a freshman last year has a chance to also

Dayton was the leading average hitter in the Big 12 before she transferred here so seems reasonable not to replace with a raw but talented freshman I would say.

Close. Nugent left because of Kinzie Hansen, not sure what "lesser player" you are referring to. Erickson left because she wanted to catch, and wasn't comfortable religiously here. I agree Emmerling isn't good, and maybe if she started using Hicks early in the season she could be a player, but...

South Carolina beating UCLA isn't technically an upset, an 8 beating a 9

So did the committee chair really say aTm was #1 because they beat taco tech? if so they lost to taco tech worse than the score that they won. They lost 2/3 to Arkansas, against whom I believe we are 4-0. They lost to the pumpkin aggies whom we run ruled. They lost 2/3 to Florida. They did win...

First time I heard Plank today he was saying if its a rainout, the higher seeded team(us) would be the champions. Was that wrong or did it somehow mysteriously get changed to co champions?

I don't know that its a done deal that Bordi is gone for good. Patty said she couldn't talk about it. She is still on the roster as of this morning

Hicks isn't ready now and I'm not advocating for her, but if you stick her in the lineup in February and go with her all year who knows? You might give up a few home runs, a few passed balls, and almost no threat to throw out runners.

You saw towards the end why we need Sanders in the lineup. Defense. If she happens to hit a bomb, all the better. That doesn't explain Emmerling however. But we won. We are now big Tenn fans tomorrow, or we can just win tomorrow and what Tenn and aTm do doesn't matter

Isabela Smith is most likely that third or maybe even second pitcher. I know the plan was to take her out after going through the lineup once, but she went through without a hit and when she gave up a single they pulled her, with disastrous results. I don't see any reason to think Lowery or...

Absolutely correct sick they were still making the same dumb passes, 3 feet over the head of inside player, attempted bounce pass to a cutter, that almost never worked, at the end of the season

Turnovers are one of the side effects of the rapid style of play we use. Not all of them, some are mindless passes and that can be fixed, but the only way to radically limit them would be to slow down. No way that is going to happen.
