I think what hurt King was the team was a 3rd into the season before Maxwell realized what he had. A incredible comeback story. I would put Ganns at 1st or Ross pitcher only. Ross because I think he was under .400 avg for the regular season and King had more wins than Ganns. I thought POY was between King, Combs and Ganns. We all probably all gave this much more thought than the coaches, lol

 

What do you mean by that? King was opening day starter on the mound and was in the lineup since the season started.

I was under the impression he was limited in innings and AB's while he pitched until the Ryle game. Your more in the loop at Dixie and clear up any bad info I received. The good thing King had scouts coming to watch him pitch and heard he touched 89 mph infront of the UC and Dodgers scout. Hopefully you can confirm that one also. Thanks

I'm not sure that having one more win is a reason to put a pitcher ahead of another.

Every Dixie pitcher is on a pitch count at the beginning of the year so he was limited in that aspect early on but so was every other pitcher. As for ABs, Coach Maxwell spent some of the early season getting new kids to varsity some ABs so he could see how they fared at the higher level.

 

And King did have some scouts out to see him throughout the year on numerous occasions but I couldn't say with certainty who was there and for which games. I do know UC attended some games and the Dodgers were there for one or two, however, I don't know what the radar gun was reading during those games.

That goes along with what I heard, just from the other side of the fence. You may disagree but of all of the top pitcher/players (Ganns, Suchanek, Combs, Dunn, ..etc) IMO King lost the most AB's especially early in the season. The Ryle game is where his pitch count harness went out the window to over 100. I don't have an eye on the book, I would need collaboration. You can blow me out of the water if you can sneek a peek at the stats and list the number of pitches from his previous games. King, I think, still has a ton of upside and he is nowhere close to reaching his potential. Heck, with his birthday he could have been a Junior this year.

The Dodger scout was there about 4 or 5 times and also a reds scout.

Any rosters for Mondays Jr/Sr all star game at Dixie High School?

Does anyone know who is coaching each squad ?

Arlo and Schweitzer are the coaches.

Tell me how Whitford makes the state Jr. all-star game, but not 9th Region?

Hopefully someone can clarify this.

There is an allstate All-Star team which play in the East-West All-Star game played in Lexington KY.

There is a Northern Kentucky Baseball Coaches Association all-star team.....

A Northern Kentucky Athletic Conference All-Star team... and a NKY All-Star game that is played tonight that has 2 players each selected by their team's coach. Is this correct? None of the teams have anything to do with the other.

Sounds about right. I don't know of the NKAC team but I would think that exists.

 

There are three KY All-Star teams: sophomores, juniors and seniors.

 

The NKBCA is divided into Division 1 and Division 2. Awards are given out at each position (including DH and a second pitcher spot) based on coach voting. They also have the Div 1/Div 2 POYs.

 

The NKBCA All-Star game was played last night. And indeed each coach picks two players each from the junior and senior classes to send to the game.

Good question. I know he missed a bunch of games but how did his stats pan out?
