DeWitt likely staying on the Dodgers roster for a while
Sikeston High School grad Blake DeWitt is expected to stay on the roster for a while despite the return of Nomar Garciaparra, the all-star DeWitt replaced.
DeWitt was called up to the major league team for the first time in his career at the start of this season when Garciaparra and another third-baseman, Andy LaRoche, were injured. DeWitt has started every game since then.
But Garciaparra's nagging injury to his right wrist means that he will see limited playing time, leaving DeWitt a spot on the team. Garciaparra is expected to be activated for a five-game trip that starts Friday.
Manager Joe Torre said a short-term solution to create the roster space for Garciaparra would be to go from 12 to 11 pitchers, according to a Los Angeles Times story.
Asked if Garciaparra could share time with DeWitt, Torre told the Times: "I think we have to see what (Garciaparra) can do physically."

Good article. But how come no articles about HS baseball? We give basketball and football the love, but no baseball at all
An overall lack of interest.
It seems like high school basketball is really what people are interested in. And football too, I guess. It just doesn't seem like all that many people are caught up in high school baseball. I could be wrong though. I follow HS baseball pretty closely, but the interest from other people just isn't there.
And they wonder why people choose Semoball sometimes....
who wonders that...
I've never heard anybody wonder that on this site, anonymous. That was a stupid comment. This site never claims to cover as much as semoball. It would be stupid if they did.
Word on the street is that Notre Dame already has printed out Dodgers' t-shirts for Blake's children with "DeWitt" on the back, in an attempt to be the first ever recruit before birth.
