Taylor Hess gives Indiana a low-drama, high-upside arm in the circle
Taylor Hess has shown she can settle games quickly for Indiana, highlighted by a scoreless Hoosier debut and a five-inning shutout effort against Evansville in 2026, where she allowed just three hits and struck out two. Her value is her poise and efficiency: she keeps runners off base, works clean innings, and has a track record of doing much more than just pitching, with strong two-way credentials from earlier stops. For a team needing a calm, competitive pitcher who can also bring lineup flexibility, Hess is a fit.
