So the MLL Championship game is going to be played at a University that does not sponsor men's lacrosse at the varsity level and turns its back on its own highly successful club MCLA team. HMM doesnt seem to make much sense. |

Honey-Mustard Pork Chops Recipe
For Linda Shupe of Berthoud, Colorado, "This recipe is a nice change from the usual barbecue sauce and makes tender, moist pork chops. It lets me get supper on the table fast—especially when I assemble it the night before!"
- 1/3 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sherry or reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 6 boneless pork loin chops (3/4 inch thick and 6 ounces each)
- In a small bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Pour half of the marinade into a large resealable bag; add pork chops. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 6-8 hours or overnight. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade for basting.
- Drain and discard marinade. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill pork, covered, over medium heat or broil 4-5 in. from the heat for 4-5 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 145°, basting frequently with reserved marinade. Let meat stand for 5 minutes before serving. Yield: 6 servings.

The electric power industry lies in the midst of major change, including a shift to market-based wholesale prices. Market players and regulators will recognize that competition requires a shift in...
The New England Auction: Regional Strategy for Competitive Generation
USGEN IS THE NATURAL CANDIDATE TO PURCHASE NEES' generation assets. We have a well-established commitment to the region; we have strong power plant operating experience; and we have been a leader in promoting competition and customer choice in gas and electric industries."
(em USGen President and CEO Joseph P. Kearney
In August 1997, U.S. Generating Co., an affiliate of PG&E Corp., successfully bid $1.59 billion in a competitive auction for all of New England Electric System's non-nuclear generating business (18 power plants, plus power purchase contracts and other assets). The transaction marked the first major sale of electric generating assets in preparation for U.S. deregulation; following close behind came the sale of three PG&E plants for $501 million and 10 Southern California Edison plants for $1.12 billion. More will follow, as states encourage utilities to divest their generating assets to prepare for competition.
One detail merits a closer look: USGen's bid price offered a substantial premium over book value, listed by NEES at $1.1 billion. Many observers blamed USGen's apparent high bid price on its over-eagerness to position itself early in a market that is rapidly growing competitive. This explanation appears short-sighted, however. It assumes that PG&E stockholders are indifferent to how the company invests its dollars or whether it receives an adequate return. It fails to explain the value that comes from being the "first mover" in a market.
Instead, assume USGen's bid reflected sound financial analysis (em that it recognized how the assets will contribute to positive cash flows. The challenge then is to grasp how a company like USGen can boost the apparent value of the NEES assets by combining them with its own operations. Commodity-producing assets, in this case, should not be viewed on a stand-alone basis. Instead, identify how the NEES assets, as operated by USGen, will now fit within a strategy for minimizing risk and maximizing value for an entire integrated portfolio of assets.
The Regional Market: Assumptions and Variables
As a regional power market, New England tends to be isolated and high-priced. At approximately 10.2 cents per kilowatt-hour, New England's electric power rates are 44 percent greater than the national retail average. Three reasons stand out for the region's high rates: high capacity costs, a high-cost fuel mix and transmission constraints. However, these transmission constraints likely enhance the value of the NEES production assets.
About a quarter of the region's estimated 27,195 megawatts of capacity comes from nuclear plants; some 3,600 MW of this capacity is more than 20 years old. Many of these plants have either been closed or are undergoing lengthy maintenance, including Connecticut Yankee and Millstone, making supply uncertain.
The region has limited tie capability to adjacent power systems. Major interties include lines to Quebec, New York, and New Brunswick, Canada. These ties are fully subscribed under existing power purchase agreements. Significantly, there is no direct tie to the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland power pool. This weakness (plus the limited extent of ties through New York) severely constrains imports of low-cost power from the Midwest.
Attracted by deregulation and the region's high capacity costs,

Work on American Dream complex set to resume in March, official says
An executive for the developer of the American Dream Meadowlands project said Wednesday that work at the site would begin early in March and that the long-delayed entertainment and shopping destination would open at the Meadowlands Sports Complex by autumn 2014.
In an informal appearance before the Bergen County Improvement Authority, Tony Armlin said crews would begin working before the complicated financing for the project was in place. Armlin, the project director for the Triple Five company, said he expected the financial structure — involving both public and private sources — would be completed by May.
Armlin told the board that the BCIA would be asked to serve as a "conduit" issuer for $400 million in bonds backed by tax incentives sought by the developer from the state and the borough of East Rutherford, the host community for the complex.
He said the bonds would be offered to investors on a "non-recourse" basis and would pose "no risk" to the county, the borough or the state.
"The bond purchasers will take on the risk, and they will be aware of that before they buy them," Armlin said.
Armlin's 25-minute presentation came just three days after the East Rutherford borough council unanimously agreed to establish a redevelopment agency that would handle the town's part of the bonding issue, subject to the approval of the Local Finance Board in Trenton.
The borough previously approved a letter of support for the developer's application to the state Economic Development Authority for a tax break of up to $400 million over 20 years. That revenue stream would be used to back an upfront payment of $150 million toward construction.
The other $250 million of bond debt would be repaid by a portion of the future property-tax-like payments that are scheduled to be received by the borough. Armlin said that Triple Five was renegotiating a 2004 agreement with East Rutherford under which the borough was to receive as much as $10 million in such payments, called payments in lieu of taxes, on the project.
That 2004 deal was based on the previous version of the project, which did not incorporate Triple Five's plans for to add a $555 million indoor water and amusement park complex to the site. Armlin declined to say whether the borough would be offered more or less revenue after the renegotiation.
East Rutherford Mayor James Cassella said that he wasn't clear on that point, either. But he signaled that other factors in the equation could justify a reduced payment to the borough.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- A public interest group filed a lawsuit Wednesday with the state Supreme Court alleging that the state Board of Education violated open government laws by firing Superintendent Jorea Marple.
The suit, an emergency petition for writ of mandamus filed by Mountain State Justice Inc., asks the justices to declare the board's decision to fire Marple last week invalid and block the members from appointing a new superintendent.
The suit was filed on behalf James and Michelle Hicks of Foster, whose child is a fourth-grader.
Among other claims, the suit alleges that the school board violated the state Open Governmental Proceedings Act by failing to list any discussion of Marple's firing on the agenda for the Nov. 15 meeting where the board voted 5-2 to fire her.
"Had the Petitioners and other citizens been notified and aware of certain board members intentions to act on the Superintendent's position, they and other citizens would have wanted to attend the meeting," the lawsuit states.
During the meeting, the board members moved to executive session, and board President Wade Linger told Marple that she was not needed for the discussion. During a break in the session, Linger confronted Marple and told her that the board had lost confidence in her and would make a motion to remove her from her post, the lawsuit states.
"It was apparent that the decision to terminate the superintendent was predetermined through discussions between board members outside the context of regularly scheduled and convened meetings," the lawsuit states.
The lawsuit also alleges that the state school board "has a history of violating the principles of open government." As an example, it claims that at an Oct. 15, 2012, meeting, Linger told the board's secretary to stop all recordings of the meeting. Other board members didn't know about Linger's action, and he did it against legal advice, according to the lawsuit.
Marple's abrupt termination has been the center of controversy since it happened. The two school board members who voted against her firing, Priscilla Haden and Jenny Phillips, have said they will resign from the board.
State school board members had originally planned to discuss Marple's replacement at a board meeting Wednesday. At the meeting where Marple was fired, Linger said he would recommend Randolph County Schools Superintendent Jim Phares to replace her.
But on Monday, a Department of Education spokeswoman said any discussion of Marple's replacement would be postponed, so board members could concentrate on their response to the recent education audit.
Then, on Tuesday, Linger announced that the board would hold a special meeting Nov. 29 to reconsider Marple's firing -- apparently in an attempt to make sure the state's open meetings laws are followed.

Disney To Acquire Marvel For $4 Billion
Mickey Mouse, in a power move to impress his ratty love interest Minnie, has decided to buy up Marvel Comics for a staggering $4 billion. With the sale come all the right's to Marvel's cache of over 5,000 characters. FIVE THOUSAND!
We believe that adding Marvel to Disney's unique portfolio of brands provides significant opportunities for long-term growth and value creation," Disney president and chief executive Robert Iger said.
"We are pleased to bring this talent and these great assets to Disney.""Disney is the perfect home for Marvel's fantastic library of characters given its proven ability to expand content creation and licensing businesses," said Marvel chief executive Ike Perlmutter.
I mean, way to go and all, Disney, but this was a pretty foolish business decision if you ask me. What in the hell are you gonna do with 5,000 Marvel characters? You should have just bought the 30 cool ones.

A New Look at Champ D'Or, Estate of the Day
One of my first posts for Luxist, before it even launched in Dec 2004, was Champ D'Or. Long before I even thought about estate of the day, this one captivated me. Most of all perhaps because it is one of those golden follies, built by the Goldfields no less, that real estate legends are made of. Shortly after completing the five-year project in 2002, the Goldfields decided their house was too big and put it on the market.
I decided to take another look at the home now that it has a website of its own with virtual tours, video and a photo gallery for all your luxury real estate gawking needs. The Texas home is 48,000 square feet of chateau-inspired luxury with details like a tearoom, garden room, ballroom and mini-theater. One of my favorite features is the two-story mahogany library complete with a winding wooden staircase but others might love the private hair salon, steam room, weight room, gfitwrap room or bowling alley. Many, many features but only six bedrooms. It has been listed at a variety of prices but is currently listed at $59.55 million. After the jump, this home wins my vote for most impressive staircase.
[Thanks, Kristi for reminding me of this fabulous property]

Klapisch: Juan Sandoval trying to make Rays despite limited vision
PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. — There aren't many outsiders who understand the mono-vision that imprisons Juan Sandoval — certainly not his Rays teammates, the ones who slap the reliever on the back and offer words of encouragement. They call Sandoval a billboard of courage, give him hope of making the 25-man roster, then return to a world he can only dream about, with full field of vision and normal depth perception.
Sandoval is blind in his right eye, blocked from seeing half of his surroundings by what appears to him as a thick black curtain. It's been this way since 2006, when, with him being an innocent bystander, an errant shotgun blast during a restaurant dispute caught Sandoval squarely in the eye, three pellets that've unmistakably altered his appearance.
You can't miss the drooping lower lid, the cloudy cornea or the way the eye has drifted to the right, no longer receiving signals from the brain. I recognize the signs of distress because I exhibited each one in 2008, after taking a line drive to the face during a semi-pro baseball game.
Sandoval is the reason I left Yankees camp Thursday morning and made the 100-mile drive to Rays camp. I wanted to learn more about the pitcher whose injury and disability so closely paralleled mine. I am luckier than Sandoval – I eventually regained my sight, but it required seven surgeries to re-attach my retina, fuse my broken orbital bones and replace my lacerated cornea with a transplant as recently as 2011.
For the longest time, however, I lived in that same narrow tunnel that mono-vision creates. Even with 20-15 vision in my good eye, I felt boxed in, detached from my surroundings, like I was watching my life through a miniature TV screen. Crowds at the ballpark scared me: I could only sense, not see, fans as they hurried by my right side.
Sandoval has similar problems. Relying on one eye – robbed of depth perception – wouldn't be so awful if its only surcharge was eliminating the 3-D effect at the movies. But Sandoval is unable to judge distance once an object is within five feet, which makes parking a car difficult. But even that would be an acceptable write-off compared to the adjustments Sandoval has been forced to make on the field.
"Comebackers are tough for me," he said. "I have to count the bounces to know how I should field the ball. That's a drill I've had to learn."
Sandoval's peripheral vision is gone, too, which means he has no sense of his right arm as it delivers the ball. It's like pitching in a completely darkened room – without visual input Sandoval is dependant on muscle memory for success.
He's spent hours in front of the mirror, practicing the perfect arm slot, the proper release point. The Rays are paying close attention. Manager Joe Maddon says, "Juan has been really interesting so far. He throws [a heavy sinker], he's got a nice slider. He's got a good, live arm. I'm impressed."
Though it's unlikely Sandoval will be on the opening day roster, team officials hint there could be an open spot at Class AAA. That would be an answered prayer for a journeyman who'd been toiling in the Mexican leagues since 2011, after being released by the Mariners, Brewers and Phillies — all of whom were deterred by Sandoval's age and, understandably, his limited vision.
All that changed this winter, however, when Rays right-hander Joel Peralta, a friend of Sandoval's from the Dominican, called general manager Andrew Friedman to alert him to the undiscovered jewel on the Aguilas team.

Health Care
Mandatory Insurance Requirements
All J-1 holders and their dependents are required by the Exchange Visitor Program and the Department of Homeland Security regulations to have health insurance with specific minimum coverage requirements while in the United States.
Most health insurance in the United States is private which means that the exchange visitors must apply to a private company to obtain insurance, have an application approved, and make timely payments on the policy premiums in order to remain insured. Health insurance for individuals is significantly less expensive than coverage that includes family members.
The minimum coverage requirements specified by the Exchange Visitor Program of the Department of State addresses [22 CFR 62.14] a few very general features that a visitor's health insurance policy must have and include: at least $50,000 per accident or illness; $7,500 for repatriation coverage; $10,000 for medical evacuation coverage; and a deductible not to exceed $500 for accident or illness. The insurance company contracted with must meet the required rating as stated in 22 CFR 62.14(c) of the federal regulations covering the Exchange Visitor Program. As part of the application process, upon request, a brochure describing the health insurance requirements will be sent to applicants.

Seth's Top 30 Twins Prospects-Part 3
I rarely take the time to write up articles over the weekend, but I did figure I owed it to the readers to finish my review of my list of the top 30 Twins prospects that I came up with last December. However, with the trade deadline looming (Saturday, 2:00 central time), there have already been a couple of trades announced that have me scratching my head! So, between Friday night and Saturday, I will be updating this site as trades occur (and I hear about them) and give my thoughts on them. As for the Twins thoughts and highlights from the Twins affiliates, I will get to those as I have time. So check back from time to time and see if there is anything new.
Trade 1:
San Diego Padres Receive Brad Fullmer.
Texas Rangers receive minor leaguer player to be named later.
Trade 1a. The Fullmer trade was nullified because Fullmer will be on the Disabled List longer than expected. So...
San Diego Padres receive PH Dave Hansen
Seattle Mariners receive minor league P Jon Huber.
Seth's Thoughts: This is kind of a 'who-cares' trade. Fullmer was just put on the Disabled List. He has primarily been a DH throughout his career. But he can hit when he is healthy. My assumption is that he will pinch hit for the Padres. For the Rangers it is ok because they have enough bats even without him.
Seth's Thoughts (1a.): Dave Hansen has been a good pinch hitter for a LONG time! So, Fullmer or Hansen isn't the issue. The Padres apparently really wanted a pitcher and got a very good veteran to do that for them.
Trade 2:
Kansas City Royals receive minor league catcher Justin Huber.
New York Mets receive 3B Jose Bautista
Seth's Thoughts: I realize that this helps make Trade #3 possible, but giving up on a catching prospect like Justin Huber for a guy that will only be used to sweeten the pot to land Kris Benson from the Pirates. In the Carlos Beltran trade, the Royals got catcher John Buck. With Huber, they may have a couple of quality catchers for the future. So, in my mind, the Royals really came out very well in this trade!
Trade 3:
New York Mets receive Kris Benson and IF Jeff Keppinger.
Pittsburgh Pirates receive Jose Bautista, Ty Wigginton and P Matt Peterson.
Seth's Thoughts: Peterson is a quality left-handed starter currently at AA. Jose Bautista could be a future big league infielder and Ty Wigginton is a very solid big leaguer. He was the Mets starting third baseman in 2003 and until a couple of weeks ago when top 3B prospect David Wright was recalled. His versatility meant that he moved to 2B at that time and continued to play. His is hitting .285 with 12 homers and 42 RBI. We know that Kris Benson is a decent starting pitcher. He has an injury history. He is the best non-Randy Johnson pitcher available, and he still had an ERA over 4.00. When you consider what the Mets gave up to get him (including Justin Huber), I think it is far too much, especially considering the Mets won't make the playoffs this season anyway! They hope to re-sign Benson following the season. Even if they do, it's still too much!
Trade 4:
New York Mets receive RHP Victor Zambrano and a minor league P Bartolome Fortunato.
Tampa Bay Devil Rays receive LHP Scott Kazmir and another minor league P Juan Diaz.
Seth's Thoughts: I thought the Mets gave up way too much to get Benson... this is ridiculous. Arguably one of the top 3 pitching prospects in all of baseball, for Victor Zambrano. Now, I like Zambrano. He is a solid major league pitcher. This year with the Rays, he is 9-7 with a 4.43 ERA. But again, the Mets are making these moves not only for this season but for the future. Mets fans have to be disappointed if their management chooses a future of Victor Zambrano instead of Scott Kazmir! Oh, did I mention that Zambrano has been experiencing elbow pain lately? And he is signed through the 2007 season. Winner - Another great young player for the Devil Rays!
Trade 5:
Los Angeles Dodgers receive RHP Brad Penny, 1B Hee Seop Choi and minor league P Bill Murphy
Florida Marlins receive C Paul Lo Duca, OF Juan Encarnacion and RP Guillermo Mota.
Seth's Thoughts: This is actually a trade with some names involved. The Dodgers wanted a 1B so they can move Shawn Green back out to RF where he will now replace Encarnacion who is now headed back for another stint with the Marlins. Brad Penny gives the Dodgers a hard-throwing starter who should be able to give them some innings. Also, he has been in the World Series. But, the Marlins finally got a solid starter, something they have not had this year, and an outfield bat. Juan Encarnacion is very underrated. Guillermo Mota is one of the best setup men in baseball. Note - Peter Gammons reports that this trade could also be just to give the Dodgers some pieces to send to Arizona in an attempt to acquire Randy Johnson and Steve Finley. So, I think this is a good trade for both teams as they are trying to get into the playoffs. However, it has the potential to become even bigger.
Trade 6:
San Francisco Giants receive OF Ricky Ledee and P Alfredo Simon.
Philadelphia Phillies receive RP Felix Rodriguez.
Seth's Thoughts: The Phillies need bullpen help. The Giants need an outfielder. Felix Rodriguez is a hard-throwing veteran are that will surely help the Phillies bullpen, especially right now with Billy Wagner on the disabled list. Ricky Ledee has been playing a lot of CF for the Phillies. So, does this mean the Phils have another move in the works for a CF? Or, will they just leave the job in the hands of the disappointing Marlon Byrd and Doug Glanville? Is Steve Finley changing his tune to consider a move East? On the other hand, the Giants have also been in talks for a closer. Could Rodriguez have moved into the closer's role?
Trade 7:
Philadelphia Phillies receive RP Todd Jones and minor league OF Brad Correll.
Cincinnati Reds receives minor league P John Hancock and IF Anderson Machado.
The Reds got Jones for very cheap after he was released in spring training. They should be happy to get a couple of second tier prospects for him. The Phillies just want to bolster their bullpen with some veterans and Jones has been a solid reliever for a long time. This is a good deadline trade for both teams.
Trade #1:
Chicago Cubs receive SS Nomar Garciaparra.
Boston Red Sox receive Orlando Cabrera and Doug Mientkiewicz.
Montreal Expos receive Alex Gonzalez, Francis Beltran, 3B Brendan Harris.
Minnesota Twins receive LHP Justin Jones.
I was playing in a softball tournament so I really don't know which trades occurred in which order. But to me, this is the biggest trade of the day, 1.) because it involves the Twins, and 2.) there are a lot of names!
Seth's Thoughts: The Cubs now have a lineup that could win the World Series. Garciaparra fits in with Sammy Sosa, Aramis Ramirez, Moises Alou and Derrick Lee, not to mention Corey Patterson and Michael Barrett! If Kerry Wood and Mark Prior get healthy at the right time, they may be the team to beat!
The Red Sox went from a bad defensive shortstop in Garciapparra and from bad defensive first basemen to a couple of solid gold glove defenders. They still have a devastating offense and will score runs. They still have some really good pitchers. Now their team appears to be more balanced. Maybe these deals will get us a Cubs/Red Sox World Series after all. Garciaparra has been a problem with the Sox ever since the A-Rod to Boston rumors started last fall.
The Expos get a stop-gap shortstop who plays solid defense and a couple of decent prospects. And, they lost a guy that they would have lost to free agency anyway.
OK, now from the Twins perspective, this is just a real minor trade. Ever since Mientkiewicz let it slip that the team had told him that he would be traded, Terry Ryan lost a lot of bargaining power. There was really no way that they could expect to get Kris Benson for Mientkiwicz and his $5 million more contract. So, what were the Twins left with? Getting what they could. Well, Justin Jones is a left-handed pitcher who is really well thought of. Would it have been nice to get more for Mientkiewicz? Of course. Was it realistic? Not at all. Terry Ryan has been good at making trades for minor leaguers that will be able to help in the future. The ceiling of Jones is pretty high. Let's see how it plays out. Really, though, I believe that this is addition by subtraction. As much as I like Doug, Morneau was, and will be for years to come, the guy to play. Maybe the best part of this deal though? Losing Mientkiewicz from the 40 man rosters allowed the Twins to purchase the contract of Jesse Crain! It will be fun to see him pitch!
Trade #2
Los Angeles Dodgers receive OF Steve Finley and C Brent Mayne.
Arizona Diamondbacks receive C Koyie Hill, OF Reggie Abercrombie and P Bill Murphy.
Seth's Thoughts: Finley agreed to waive his right to veto any trade to go to the Dodgers. Arizona trades a couple of veterans to the Dodgers, but they did receive some great prospects in exchange. Hill is a top catching prospect. Abercrombie is highly thought of. Murphy came to the Dodgers from the Marlins yesterday. The Dodgers add some offense and a quality centerfielder, and a catcher to start in place of Paul Lo Duca. But what will this do? Milton Bradley will have to move to left field. How will he handle that. Brent Mayne is not a good catcher, so that doesn't add a lot. I guess I don't understand how the Dodgers series of trades really makes them a better team. Fact is, they were already a first place team.
Trade #3:
Boston Red Sox acquire OF Dave Roberts.
Los Angeles Dodgers receive OF Henri Stanley.
Seth's Thoughts: The Dodgers outfield is now full with Bradley, Finley and Shawn Green, so Dave Roberts was expendable. They receive another OF prospect, which basically replaces Abercrombie in their system. How does Roberts fit in with the Red Sox? Well, Ramirez and Damon will be in left and center. But RF is open as Trot Nixon is likely out for the season. Roberts can platoon out there with Kevin Millar.
Trade #4
Chicago White Sox receive Jose Contreras.
New York Yankees receive Esteban Loaiza.
Seth's Thoughts: Obviously the White Sox received cash in this deal to help pay Contreras the next couple of years. He has been quite the enigma in his time with the Yankees. He has been great at times, but many times against poor competition, he has been lit up. Of course, the White Sox play in the AL Central, so maybe Contreras can really help them. Loaiza was named an All Star again this season, but he really has not been good, and has not been consistent. Maybe this is just a good trade for both teams in that, a change of scenery might do them both well. Contreras may be able to perform better outside New York, and Loaiza is veteran enough that he shouldn't struggle there. His ERA may not be the best, but surrounded by that offense will help.
Trade #5
Texas Rangers receive Scott Erickson from Mets for cash.
Seth's Thoughts: The Mets had designated Erickson for release earlier in the week. The Rangers can always use arms. Erickson could be a good pickup for them as their 4th or 5th starter.
Trade #6
Atlanta Braves acquire P Tom Martin.
Los Angeles Dodgers receive P Matt Merricks.
Seth's Thoughts: Yawn!! Braves get a bullpen arm. This is a pretty minor trade.
Trade #7
Florida Marlins receive RP Rudy Seanez.
Kansas City Royals receive OF Abraham Nunez.
Seth's Thoughts: Florida is just continuing to stock pile relievers. Did you remember that Abraham Nunez led the major leagues in home runs in spring training?
Trade #8
Florida Marlins receive P Ismael Valdez.
San Diego Padres receive minor league pitcher Travis Click.
Seth's Thoughts: Marlins get a solid 5th starter down the stretch. He's not great, but he'll keep a team in the game. Better than Darren Oliver, who they traded to the Astros a month ago.
So there you have it. All of the Trade Deadline deals. Of course, there will likely be a lot of players who will be put on waivers and those who are not claimed can still be traded until August 31. There will probably be more activity in that time.
Any thoughts on any of the trades, particularly the Doug Mientkiewicz deal? E-mail me.
So, without further ado, Seth's 21-30 Twins Prospects:
#21 Colby Miller, RHP
Miller has been good, at least in terms of ERA, since being drafted in the 3rd round of the 2000 draft. But this year, Miller has taken a step back. He started the year with some arm pains and in Extended Spring training. He finally was brought up to AA New Britain where he has struggled. He is 2-4 with a 7.43 ERA. In 36.1 innings, he has struck out just 15 while walking 17.
#22 Luis Rodriguez, 2B
Luis Rodriguez is another player that I do not understand why he is not more highly thought of. He has continued to put up solid numbers at every stop. He had a very solid year at Rochester in 2003, hitting .295/.354/.376 with 35 doubles. He walked 46 times and struckout 46 times. This year, at just 24 years of age, Rodriguez is hitting .283/.350/.403 with 29 doubles, five homers and 41 RBI. He has struck out 38 times while walking 41 times. I think he at least deserves a chance at the Twins 2B job next year.
#23 Scott Tyler, RHP
Tyler was the Twins 2nd round pick in 2001. He was great his first two seasons as a pro, but last year at Quad Cities, he really struggled. He was 6-12 with a 5.50 ERA. That said, he still struck out 110 in 106+ innings. This year, he is repeating the season at Low-A Quad Cities and has shown some improvement. In 14 games, he is 3-2 with a 3.18 ERA. He has struck out 69 batters in 56.2 innings. However, he has also walked 38. Tyler is a big man which has to be a concern to the Twins, but he also has the size to grow into a power pitcher.
#24 Terry Tiffee, 3B
I think Terry Tiffee became a prospect worth watching last year when he hit .315 with 31 doubles, 14 homers and 93 RBI. He went to the Arizona Fall League and held his own. He has suffered a couple of injuries so far this year at AAA Rochester, but has continued to hit. He is currently hitting .280/.343/.495 with 17 doubles, 7 homers and 38 RBI. In 204 plate appearances, he has just 14 walks, but he has also struck out just 14 times. I get a lot of grief for believing that, if the Twins let Corey Koskie walk after the season, Terry Tiffee could handle the everyday 3B job for the Twins. I know he has never been a top prospect, but not all starters have been. I think that Tiffee has continued to improve each year and at each level and assuming his defense is adequate, I think he could handle the job.
#25 Henry Bonilla, RHP
Henry Bonilla also pitched in the Arizona Fall League. He started the season at AA New Britain. He did get called up to Rochester and started two games for them and came in in relief once. He was 1-2 with a 3.24 ERA there. He is now back at New Britain. All told, he has pitched in 18 games (15 starts). He is 8-7 with a 4.44 ERA. Bonilla is not a strikeout pitcher (54 Ks in 101.1 innings), but he doesn't walk many either (22). He will turn 26 in a couple of weeks, which makes him fall down this list.
#26 Christopher Schutt, RHP
Schutt was taken last year in the 7th round of the draft out of Cornell. Like Errol Simonitsch, Schutt dominated the younger players at Elizabethton going 5-2 with a 1.98 ERA. In 54.2 innings, he struck out 74 batters. Also like Simonitsch, Schutt struggled at the beginning of this season. He has been better of late, but he is now 5-7 with a 4.29 ERA. In 107 innings, the 22 year old has struck out 88 and walked 44.
#27 Dusty Gomon, 1B
Gomon is on this list simply because of his power numbers. He has not hit for average at all and struck out way too much. But, his power potential is great. After being unable to hit at Quad Cities last season, he returned to Elizabethton where he hit 15 homers. This year, he has spent the season at Quad Cities. He is hitting .189/.227/.321 with 14 doubles, 6 homer and 27 RBI. He is getting extra-base hits, but not much else. In 255 plate appearances, he has struck out 61 times and walked just 8.
#28 Rob Bowen, C
Early in the season, Rob Bowen came up to the Twins, and in his first at bat, he hit a pinch hit homer. He was sent back down to AA when Matthew LeCroy came off the disabled list. He has not hit at all at New Britain. He is hitting .190/.298/.352 with 10 doubles, 8 homers and 19 RBI. If not for the power, it would be just a terrible season.
#29 Nick Punto, IF
Nick Punto came to the Twins along with Carlos Silva (and Bobby Korecky) for Eric Milton. I don't think that Punto, like Lew Ford, is officially eligible for the Rookie of the Year award either. Last year in Philadelphia, he got 92 at bats in 64 games. This year, with the Twins, he has shown an ability to be a quality role player for the team. He played mainly at SS and 2B, but also got some games in at 3B and CF. Unfortunately, injuries cost him this season. He missed almost two months of the season with an oblique injury. Then he came back and was playing great when he broke his collarbone and likely will be out for the season. Although he got just 91 at bats, I think Punto showed a lot. His batting average was just .253, but he had an on-base percentage of .340. He just has a great approach at the plate. And, no one can question his heart, work ethic or effort.
#30 Jim Abbott, RHP
I said when Rob Bowen was sent to AA out of training camp that they would want him to spend time catching the Twins best pitching prospects, and they were at New Britain. JD Durbin, Colby Miller, Henry Bonill and Jim Abbott. Abbott had a strong year throwing to Joe Mauer in 2003 at Ft. Myers and New Britain. But this year, he is not doing well. In 14 starts, Abbott is 2-6 with a 5.70 ERA. In 72.1 innings, he has struck out just 32 and walked just 20. The 24 year old will probably need to spend another season at New Britain, if he sticks around that long.
As I have mentioned, there are a few prospects who I did not mention in my Top 30 that absolutely would be near the top of the list if I made it now. Here is a quick look at three of the other Twins top prospects that hopefully we will hear more about in the near future:
Scott Baker, RHP - With JD Durbin, the Twins could have two members of their starting rotation. #2 pick by the Twins in 2003 out of Oklahoma State.
Class A - Ft. Myers - 6 starts, 4-2, 2.40 ERA, 45 innings, 6 walks, 37 strikeouts.
Class AA - New Britain - 10 starts, 5-4, 2.43 ERA, 70.1 innings, 13 walks, 72 strikeouts.
Class AAA - Rochester - 2 starts, 0-1, 6.75 ERA, 10.2 innings, 1 walk, 3 strikeouts.
Luis Maza, 2B - The 24 year old 2B has really made a name for himself this year. He was signed in 1997 by the Twins out of Venezuela.
Class AA - New Britain - 91 games, .309/.365/.476 with 21 doubles, 6 triples, 9 homers and 46 RBI.
Class AAA - Rochester - 9 games, .229/.289/.343 with 2 doubles, 1 triple and 1 RBI.
Kevin West, OF - Last year, the 24 year old West had a solid season in New Britain last year hitting .279/.318/.451 with 41 doubles, 14 homers and 79 RBI. As another Twins OF prospect, he seems to be almost a forgotten man.
Class AA - New Britain - 103 games, .296/.357/.545 with 33 doubles, 20 homers and 79 RBI.
