Madi McDonnell gives UT Arlington a two-way arm with real innings value
McDonnell has been a useful **two-way piece** for UT Arlington, with a 2025 season that included a .255 average, three home runs, and a 3-4 pitching record across 41 innings, plus a 2026 win and save work that shows the staff trusts her in leverage spots. Her biggest differentiator is versatility: she can help as a right-hander in the circle and add lineup pop at first base, which makes her a fit for teams that value roster flexibility, toughness, and someone willing to take the ball in pressure innings.
