I would have gone Lynch-McMillian-Chatfield long ago. Played Legette more
Then Aldrige, Peck, Yeager, Castine...
and Legette should have been given more opportunities than 44 ABs. She has a .341 average in 16 fewer ABs than Martin...I could envision her being a .300 hitter with the 100+ ABs the other regular players have gotten this year. She has roughly the same HRs (3 vs. 4) and walks as Martin in 16 fewer ABs. I know she may not be a natural outfielder, but let her learn on the fly this year if she could sustain a .300 average
But lynch with 29% of her hits being doubles...with her BA and OB%... she could easily set the table for McMillan. And imagine Chatfield coming up with Lynch and McMillan on base. Instead McMillan follows two hitters hitting below .250

Agreed…with FSU’s speed it plays into their hands.**

FSU hit .424 on the night & their avg with 2 outs was ridiculous **

Fantastic post. I have questioned her hitting leadoff, too. Pete can be a

Aldridge has been hitting great, and Martin has as well over the past few

I agree with this. Kylie is a more solid catcher, Zoey has more highlight
