Reply to "Summer Leagues tidbits"

Interesting dynamics-the Valley League starts playoffs Saturday and they go pretty quickly-usually wrapped up in a week. Last night we played Covington, the team with the least wins in the league. They traveled 2 1/2 hours to get to Strasburg, after playing 2 games the day before, involving even longer travel, getting home around 3 in the morning...yet they gave us all we could handle, had lots of pep and life, and looked to be having fun-a huge testament to their coaches and organization.     Some players are just plain stupid-I know of a couple kids in the league that had scouts specifically come to see them last week-only to learn they had gone home-just because they wanted to go home. One scout said, "That makes my job easy-scratch scratch".       Another said that if a kid can't handle a 2 month summer season, he sure can't handle the minors....
