    I’d put Skylar at short and Jocey at catcher. Reagan would be my second Utility with Taylor first off the bench right now.

    Aubree was the top defensive catcher, Jocey is right there with her.

    Good news is one of Pickens and Bahl will be gone

    Oregon is in the process of forcing a final game against Stanford. Zona doing the same against Ole Miss. Auburn did against FSU. Duke did against UGA. A&M forced it against Liberty. Just nuts.

    Aubree is simply one of my ever favorites....but....Jocey is close as a catcher and a far better hitter. Gotta go with Jocey.

    Looks like UCLA will go to USC for the Super. Interesting and not a predicted matchup from past history.

    If you can't make sensible rulings on obstruction, and they can't, then just get rid of the obstruction rule in its entirety.

    It's true tho, Pickens and Bahl will face each other in supers next week. One of them will be bounced

    That has to be so frustrating for Liberty.

    At first I was outraged because it certainly wasn't obstruction for the play at the bag.

    But after the ball squirts away, 3B -- without the ball -- does inadvertantly hinder the runner from heading home for one or two seconds (at most). So I think that's where the obstruction was, not that the TV commentators had a clue.

    My bad. I confused Pickens with Canady. A thousand apologizes as that was what was buried in my brain.

    Hard time rooting for Liberty with the Fagan sisters coaching there.

    I mean it's true that 1 will be gone. Whether we will get to face one has yet to be determined obviously

    I don't really like Liberty but I really can't stand Texas A&M

    OMG!! I had no idea.

    It would be nice to see Liberty instead of A&M at the WCWS, but my dislike of the Fagans is pretty intense.

    OTOH, it was in some ways a shining moment that showed the "Florida Way." Dismissing the Fagans and two other starters mere hours before the 2012 NCAA Tournament began (causing us to be eliminated in the first round) showed that intregrity is more important than winning to CTW and UF.

    My bad. See above. I had Canady at FSU and Bahl at Tennessee buried in my brain and didn't pay attention to what was written.

    No problem! I think Nija was struggling with blisters on her finger today so Im interested in how the FSU series goes..she randomly has games where she gets rocked.
