I had a hunch it would happen, she couldn't crack the top 3 and saw very little playing time.  Will be just as hard next year with the stud freshman coming in to go with a potential portal pickup as well and Kavan and Wells returning.

I figured as much since Wells took most of her innings in the circle.

How would anyone feel about Madi Azua. Senior lefty pitcher from Texas State?

career - 2.26 ERA, 55-26, 35 complete games and 8 shutouts.

 I believe Torres is from Georgetown.

I’m not going to gossip too much but she’s not the type of player that would fit with the Texas culture. Her and her mom are headaches.

Swan is visiting Texas today.

Wish her well.  This frees up cap space for Madison Azua I hope...

[HookemTexas]

Torres is on my wishlist, her defense is amazing.

Yawn. Tech is for losers.

Torres is definitely not at a positon of need but it would be more of a “best player available” situation. Swan would be much more of a positional fit on the roster, to lead a position group of younger catchers in Wallace, South, and Clemmer. Stewart can catch too if needed but I think the staff likes her more at first.

Idk if it’s real but Eric Henry says Texas is a major player for Isa Torres. We’ll see what happens but if Texas pulls Torres off the market and lands Swan they may get a perfect season next year.

Need to add a lefty starter pitcher.

We have the best lefty in the game, she just happens to throw right handed.

Texas States Azua fits that’s bill I’m fairly certain.

[HookemTexas]

IF Texas lands Torres, likely either she or Martinez moves to 2nd, that's as good a middle defense as you can get with Henry covering CF behind them.
