If you have been in a coma the last few months, welcome back. The bad news is that Montana Fouts will never pitch for the Crimson Tide ever again. This notion was certainly not lost on Alabama coach Patrick Murphy. A week after picking up senior Kayla Beavers from Central Arkansas, Murphy reeled in rising sophomore Alea Johnson (7-1 record and 1.41 ERA) from LSU. These two additions are strong moves that will help fill the gaping hole left by Fouts’s departure.
Murphy has gone to the transfer portal before.
