Dodgers’ Josh Ravin and His Journey to the Majors

Imagine being just 18 years old when you find out you were drafted into the majors. As a senior at Chatsworth High School in Chatsworth, Califiornia, Josh Ravin got that call.

In 2006 Ravin was drafted by the Cincinnati Reds in the fifth round of the MLB June Amateur Draft. It looked like all this dreams came true, but what no one knew was the long journey to the majors that laid ahead.

Ravin has pitched for minor league teams in Florida, Montana, Ohio, Arizona, Virginia, California, Kentucky, Tennessee, New Mexico, and Oklahoma. Baseball has taken him all over the states in nine years.
