    I hate seeing players constantly called out when there's more than that 1 player(s) contributing to a loss

    Team loss. To me, the game started off discombobulated with Erickson out of the lineup and the Gators just never seemed like their normal confident selves the entire game. It never felt like they had control of the game and that it was just a matter of time before things fell apart. We need to regroup and get 'em tomorrow.

    I hear you..however the pitching hasn't been stellar lately...walking in runs the last 2 games has not helped..each loss a poor inning

    Maybe. But other than 1 week, Williams has been a non-factor at the plate. Now the very poor offense has carried onto the field at 2B.

    Down 5-1 to SC

    So Mizzou had 6 runs on only 3 hits. Wow, talk about gifting a game.

    Middle of sec play. If we're gonna stumble some nows the time. Right the ship in May. Wish walton would have made the hook before the single. Rothrock had lost it.

    Just can't expect to beat a good team when you give them 9 free passes in a game. Then you minimize your chances even more with a bad baserunning play that cost us a run, a mental error in the field that gave them an extra out, 2 runners left on 2nd and 3rd by a substitute catcher (for whatever reason she was in there), a senior OF who is batting under .200 in SEC games not able to get a run in from 3rd with less than 2 outs, our leadoff hitter going 0-4, a hard hit ball right at a player with 2 outs where the play is not made and 2 runs score and your top 2 hitters unable to get a runner in from 2nd with 1 out. Definitely a team loss.

    Someone on the Gator Fans Softball FB page asked why Williams continues to be in the starting lineup. Another responded, “Because Mommy and Daddy went to Florida.” I’m sure that’s not the case at all. However, I do feel he should give someone on the bench a crack at it. Who knows, something successful may happen? You won’t know until you try.

    I suggested coach TW switch up the lineup during the Miss State weekend's series when #11 was hitting .180, but was pretty much told that she just needs time and that she's great in the field. She's now down to .160 with a 35% K rate. If you're average is that bad at this point in the season, you better be Hannah Adams-esque in the field which I think we can agree she isn't. I just don't understand why you don't play Walsh at 2B and DH Goddard/ McClellan as they're both hitting above .300.

    I wonder why Cassidy McLellan hasn't seen action lately. She's hitting something like .330.
