Not sure. Most Ohio schools are limited by the 10 day rule, only 10 coaching days in the summer. Trying to get a practice or 2 in, then trying to schedule games is so difficult. I enjoyed it when I was at Ripley. we even played in a rotating summer league with Augusta, Bracken, and Deming. Rotated to each gym and played 2 games a night. It was great experience for my kids. Good luck to all teams this summer.
Really surprised. I remember when we used to have Eastern Brown, Georgetown, North Adams, and other Ohio teams that would come play. I brought Ripley when I was there. It was always great to play a different style and different teams not normally on your schedule.
Dodgers are in financial trouble as is. Why wouldn't they make a deal. If I am the Reds, I offer the above and whatever other minor leaguers they want.
You asked what my lineup would look like, that is what I would want.
My lineup
2B-Phillips
LF-Heisy
1B-Votto
CF-Matt Kemp
RF-Bruce
3B-Rolen
C-Mesoraco
SS-Cozart
SP Cueto, Billingsly, Leake, Arroyo, Chapman
I trade Stubbs, Alonso, and Bailey and a prospect or two for Kemp and Billingsly. I would do whatever possible to make this happen. Kemp would hit 50+ HR's playing half his games at GABP.
