(SB) Ongoing UF Softball Commentary

I spelled her name wrong. It is Danni.
She was on the 2019 and 2020 rosters.
She did graduate from UF.

 

The scoreboard was on at KSP yesterday and today.
When I went by this morning, CTW and I believe CAT were standing near the mound with two young ladies.
Does anyone know who they might be?

 

She's the one that I was sure would be the next Aleshia Ocasio, based on her high school carear pitching and her preferred position at 2B. I banged that drum loud and long in this forum, until I eventually retreated in shame since I was totally wrong.

But I'm glad life is turning out well for her -- nice person, as is her mom.

 

Falby to be captain:
2025 All-Star Cup Series 2 Captains

 

Just saw this

 

Know next to nothing about her. Playing for Batbusters-Stith is a huge plus. This may have something to do with what was going on yesterday at KSP. Her 2025 Alliance numbers look pretty good. She is a 2026 so she joins a good group, if they all stick. Player Profile

 

This is strange. She is fifth on the leaderboard. But Rachel Garcia is ahead of her and she is off to China with the USA National team. That may have bumped Kendra up. Boy is she getting a baptism of fire right off the bat. Pulling for her.

 

She is the new 2026 commit to the Gators.

 

This looks like a good get. Like you say, having those statistics with Stith is impressive,
Where do I find the '26 commitments?

 

If you have not seen it, the 2026 roster is on floridagators.com

 

I'm confused, Johnny. Both of the players we have discussed are pitchers.

 

I think he is talking about Farley. Or perhaps I am the one confused.

 

He is talking about Danni Farley. She was one of the pitchers that Coach Bosch failed to develop. I remember when we signed her. We stole her from under FSU‘s nose in recruiting. She had a lot of promise. I was disappointed when she was not developed correctly.

 

While we don't know how Escobar will turn out there is one great advantage to getting her. It keeps the Batbusters' line open. Tim must have a great relationship with Mike Stith. Oklahoma gets the most from them but we have to be at or very close to second.

 

Nope. That can't be the reason. AUSL is taking a break for the entire time USA National and other national teams are in China. So I remain stumped on how Kendra at #5 is one of the four captains.

 

I thought Danni Farley was going to be the greatest thing since sliced bread. She was primarily a pitcher, but her true love was 2B. I thought she'd be like Occasio -- pitch and then play a different position on her "off" days.

I was sadly mistaken. But I like Rick's take that my scouting was not bad, rather that Coach Bosch failed to develop her.

 

I made the Coach Bosch lack of development comment.

 

Kendra redux.

Both of the young ladies on the field yesterday had dark hair like hers.
