Agree that the number of pitchers hitting at a P5 is limited, but [MENTION=14644]Bob516[/MENTION] 's DD is a catcher and they do not get one either...and when was the last time you saw a top D1 team FLEX for their catcher?

Generally speaking, the catchers for most teams also tend to hit pretty well.

I have mixed feelings on courtesy runners.

For a school play off run DD was attached to C. I do not recall if she was a better baserunner then her but it got DD in game.

Generally I will ask if they want one, mostly I hear no. If DD is pitching a bunch she will say yes.

We are usually organized enough that either an adult or a player on bench will go out to warm pitcher up while catcher gears up, does not slow the game up as far as I have noticed.

DD gets a courtesy runner 99% of the team in TB. Although, she got to touch all 4 after she banged one over the fence on Sunday. During showcases that's how the coach gets the bench players in the game.
