Maybe she can pitch, maybe she can't. The problem with your question is you really don't care what people are suggesting. Everyone who is giving you great advice (let it be for while) is getting rebutted. You need to relax, let the coach do her job and if that doesn't work out for you have your daughter tryout for another team.
If you stay the course you are currently on you will end up having a daughter that can pitch with no team that wants her. Softball is a team game and as a parent you need to instill this in your daughter and get off this angle of what she did all winter somehow making her special. If she focuses on what the coach wants then she will grow with the team and probably get to a point where she can make some comments to the coach and be heard. Quite frankly the first couple of weeks of a season is not the time for this conversation.
Take a step back an make sure you are not contributing or creating the friction in this case. We have removed some really good players from our team over the years simply to rid our team of a negative parent.
