Alyssa Platero brings freshman poise, versatility, and timely contact bat to St. John’s
In the 2026 season, Alyssa Platero has been a useful all-over-the-diamond piece for St. John’s, appearing in 38 games while moving between designated player, third base, and the outfield, and she hit .286 with an .787 OPS, four RBIs, and eight extra-base hits. She also came in with real pedigree — a five-year varsity starter, four-year captain, and a top-35 national recruit — which tracks with the way she adds polish, competitiveness, and lineup flexibility. If your team values a steady freshman who can plug holes and deliver contact with some pop, she’s absolutely worth the attention.
