Alix Franklin is breaking out as LSU’s high-upside utility spark
Alix Franklin has emerged in 2026 as a breakout LSU weapon, hitting .289 with an SEC-leading six triples, five home runs, and 36 RBI while also posting a strong .968 fielding percentage. Her value goes beyond the box score: she brings speed, gap power, clutch production, and real defensive versatility, including standout outfield work after arriving as a lightly used freshman. She looks like a fit for a team that wants an energetic, adaptable player who can change a game in multiple ways and is trending sharply upward.
