What ever happened to Rodebaugh? I heard he got sent home before the Saturday game against Charleston for showing up late, then he was never seen again. His stats page shows his last game as the Friday of the Charleston series, so he never saw action after that. Was he still with the team on the bench? Did Kennedy kick him off the team? Did Rodebaugh quit? Was some sort of injury involved?

I just found this in answer to my own question: Designated hitter / first baseman Robert Rodebaugh has been suspended indefinitely because of violation of team rules, Kennedy said. He hasn't played since May 4 when the Phoenix opened a series against College of Charleston.
He was batting .243 with eight home runs and 27 RBI in 39 games. Sixteen of his 33 hits went for extra bases.
In 2006, Rodebaugh was the team's Most Valuable Player in his first season after transferring from Division II Presbyterian.
He missed time earlier this season with an arm injury and never worked his way back into the lineup on a regular basis.
