Sorry darlin......read over it...........not stupid. With a left handed batter there is no one in the way to throw to 3rd. ? what do YOU think is so stupid about it?

 

He's good.......promise you. You're from dyersburg........ask some of those sophomore dyersburg players that played travel ball with him. they know.

 

if there is a left handed batter then a right handed catcher has the advantage cause there is know batter in his way... with a lefty he would have to turn his whole body to throw to third.. the only advantage that i can think of for a left handed catcher is throwing behind the runner at first... i think im reading this right........ you tell me??

 

sounds kinda like common sense to me.. right handed catchers have the advantage throwing to third.. plain and simple!!!

ok, my original point was that lefties should be given the chance to catch.....that's all. If they are good, let 'em do it. /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

Ryan Seaton from Ripley best catcher in the state. Run on him and you will see why. He will reach 1st base before 80% of most runners when no one is on base.

 

Most aggressive catcher I've ever seen.

 

I agree Ryan has a very impressive arm but he can also block virtually any pitch,except for wild pitches, and i have never seen any kid hustle like he does every pitch and every play....he has a real desire to be out on the field

People get 1 million times more careless at first base than they at 2nd base when their about to steal, also people only steal third when its guaranteed, as if they get such a good jump there will be no throw at all. Besides that you dont see many bang bang plays at third base, their usually obviously out or obviously safe which is way I think a left handed catcher would be just fine.

    • A perfect example is for athletes at Clinton High School. I will completely understand, and hopefully everyone should understand why they want to, and as of right now, it looks like that’s going to happen in numbers over the summer.
    • I mean, that’s easy to say when it hasn’t happened to your school that often, if at all, but yeah, I think everybody should be for the student athlete or player. Whatever they think will help them or their athletic career, I feel like they should be able to do that, even if that means transferring schools. Now I don’t really get that when you have almost every offer you could want and then jump ship, but what can I say? I guess money talks. 
    • I for one am all for it. 
    • Covid killed the city because they chose not to play football in the 2020 season. Therefore, kids weren't able to practice and develop, and continuing to lift weights. Memphis basically had 7/8 graders, skipping a year, then playing 9/10 high school football. Now, there's only one team that has made a "dent" which will be Southwind (made it to the 5A semifinals last year).  If you want to go more suburbs, then it'll be Houston, which won the 6A state title, defeating Oakland Other than that, I agree.
    • It will be hard opening up a restaurant and coaching a High School Football team at the same time but he did take this job as an interm coach to stop the bleed. The program is in scorched earth mode right now and could drop down to the likes of Scott County, Campbell County and Karns if they lose most of their kids out of this.
