Just imagine the air as bubbles and liquid? Keep in mind that water is very reflective, and it gets its blue color by reflecting the sky, usually. So, the things that are in the water will have a blue tint. :) Hope this helps a bit. Thanks!

What to do? What to do? (The Kyle Lohse Story)
Roger Presents:
All Twins Prospect Team
Good morning All! We've got Roger's Twins Prospect team, some thoughts on Kyle Lohse and the first installment of this year's American Idol show. So, let's get to it!
Roger and I were discussing ways in which we could summarize and conclude his position-by-position analysis of the Twins minor league system. We decided to have Roger come up with his All-Twins Prospect team in which he will select one player from each position.
The Minnesota Twins 2006 All Prospect Team
The Twins system is loaded with talent, especially pitchers. Following are my selections for the 2006 All Prospect Team. A player will be chosen for each position, DH, 5 starting pitchers, a closer, left and right handed set-up men and left and right handed long relief. A brief discussion will follow each player's selection with a mention of the runner-up. Information included for each player will include (my ranking of their 2005 performance/age as of July 1, 2006/how acquired). I will also include their numbers for the past two seasons unless they have only been in the system for one year. Finally, I will include a good estimate of the earliest that we can expect to see them in a Twins uniform.
Obviously some of these kids who are still in A ball or on a rookie team will have a greater chance of not making it to the Twins, therefore, to gain recognition on this team will require that a player from the rookie leagues must be a very special prospect. For purposes of these selections, Jason Bartlett, Jason Kubel and Scott Baker are not eligible as Kubel was on the Twins roster the entire year and Bartlett and Baker had substantial time with the Twins during 2005. Liriano, who was a September call up, remains eligible as a prospect for purposes of selecting this team.
Catcher - Kyle Phillips (#26/22/D10, 2002)
2005 - New Britain (67ab/..209Ave/.263OBP/.313SLG/6BB/17SO/2HR/8RBI)
2005 - Ft. Myers (278ab/.230Ave/.309OBP/.302SLG/31BB/47SO/12HR/60RBI)
2004 - Quad Cities (347ab/.228Ave/.304OBP/..369SLG/38BB/69SO/11HR/44 RBI)
Phillips was promoted to New Britain last season as an injury replacement. Considering that Kyle was only 21, his performance at Ft. Myers and New Britain was very good. He also is reportedly an excellent defensive catcher with comments indicating that pitchers such as Perkins were more effective at New Britain following his arrival. Phillips has been invited to join the Twins in spring training and will likely be ready to contribute to the major league club by late 2007 or 2008. The runner-up is Javi Sanchez (#41/24/D14, 2004), who performed well for Beloit in his first full season with the Twins.
First Base - Garrett Jones (#5/25/mlfa, 2002)
2005 - Arizona Fall League (97ab/.279Ave/.354OBP/.680SLG/7BB/27SO/9HR/30RBI)
2005 - Rochester (488ab/.244Ave/.297OBP/.445SLG/36BB/109SO/24HR/72RBI)
2004 - New Britain (450ab/.311Ave/..351OBP/.593SLG/28BB/98SO/30HR/92RBI)
2004 - Ft. Myers (66ab/.242Ave/.286OBP/.364SLG/4BB/19SO/6HR/6RBI)
Jones was acquired from the Atlanta Braves organization as a minor league free agent prior to the 2002 season. His breakout year was 2004 when he hit 36 home runs between Ft. Myers and New Britain. Jones' biggest weakness is his high number of strikeouts, 109 in 488 at bats in 2005. He is the best power hitter that the Twins have who is close to the major leagues, unfortunately, he plays the same position as Justin Morneau. Jones was added to the 40-man roster following the 2004 season and could appear with the Twins at any time in 2006. The runner-up is Johnny Woodard (#46/21/D3, 2003), who missed much of 2005 at Beloit due to injury.
Second Base - Alexi Casilla (21/Romero trade, 2006)
2005 - Cedar Rapids-A (308ab/.325Ave/.392OBP/.409SLG/29BB/31SO/47-59SB)
2005 - Arkansas-AA (19ab/.211Ave/.286OBP/.211SLG/2BB/3SO/1-2SB)
2005 - Salt Lake-AAA (39ab/.256Ave/.310OBP/.256SLG/3BB/6SO/1-2SB)
Casilla was recently acquired from the Angels organization for J.C. Romero. After brief appearances in AA and AAA, he spent most of last season with Cedar Rapids of the Midwest League. Casilla, an extremely fast switch hitter who is an ideal lead off hitter, stole more than twice as many bases in 2005 as any player in the Twins organization. Casilla appears to be the perfect player to replace newly acquired Luis Castillo in 2008 after his contract expires. The runner-up is Juan Portes (#8/20/D15, 2004), who is one of the Twins most exciting young hitting prospects who was a member of the Elizabethton championship team.
Shortstop - Trevor Plouffe (#18/20/D1, 2004)
2005 - Beloit (466ab/.223Ave/.300OBP/.345SLG/50BB/78SO/13HR/60RBI)
2004 - Elizabethton (237ab/.283Ave/.336OBP/.380ALG/19BB/34SO/4HR/28RBI)
Plouffe was the Twins first of three first round picks in 2004. He performed well at Beloit this season, especially after consideration that at 19 he was one of the youngest players in the league. A demonstration of how well he did is that his performance was better than both high school shortstops selected before him in the 2004 draft, including the #1 overall pick. Plouffe has surprising power for a young middle infielder. Although his 35 errors were the most in the system, it can be expected that his errors will decrease as he matures and gains experience. Assuming normal development, Plouffe will likely make the final step to the Twins in late, 2008 or 2009. The runner-up is Paul Kelly (#40/19/D2a, 2005), who is an excellent prospect who performed very well in a limited exposure during the playoffs with Beloit following his Gulf Coast League season.
Third Base - Matt Moses (#1/21/D1, 2003)
2005 - Arizona Fall League (69ab/.275Ave/.286OBP/.406SLG/1BB/16SO/2HR/6RBI)
2005 - New Britain (186ab/.210Ave/.275OBP/.366SLG/14BB/51SO/6HR/30RBI)
2005 - Ft. Myers (265ab/..306Ave/.376OBP/.453SLG/28BB/59SO/7HR/42RBI)
2004 - Quad Cities (112ab/.223Ave/.298OBP/.366SLG/12BB/25SO/3HR/14RBI)
Moses was the Twins first round pick as a high school shortstop in 2003. Considered one of the top power hitters in that draft, he missed much of 2003 and 2004 due to various injuries. He was rated by my formula as having the top performance of any player in the system in 2005, in part due to his reaching AA at the age of 20. Moses will likely begin 2006 at New Britain with a realistic chance of being the Twins third baseman by as early as mid-to-late, 2007. The runner-up is David Winfree (#7/20/D13, 2003), who easily could have been the top prospect after leading the Twins system with 101 rbi while at Beloit in 2005.
Left Field - Alex Romero (#3/22/ndfa, 2000)
2005 - New Britain (509ab/.301Ave/.354OBP/.458SLG/36BB/69SO/15HR/77RBI)
2004 - Ft. Myers (380ab/.292Ave/.380OBP/.405SLG/54BB/47SO/6HR/42RBI)
Romero took a major step forward with an excellent season in the Venezuelan Winter League during 2004/2005. After a slow start at New Britain in 2005, Romero had a wonderful season including setting the all-time franchise record for consecutive games getting on base safely (38) and missed the consecutive game hitting streak by two games with his 23 game streak. Romero has reportedly added some strength and weight which has helped him gain power, however, at a small loss of speed. Romero, who was added to the 40-man roster last December, is one of the Twins top outfield prospects with a real chance of playing in a Minnesota uniform by late 2006. The runner-up is Deacon Burns (#14/23/D26, 2004), who is an exciting player who set the Beloit franchise record with 13 triples this past summer.
Center Field - Denard Span (#2/22/D1, 2002)
2005 - Arizona Fall League (102ab/.294Ave/.339OBP/.353SLG/7BB/9SO/7-12SB)
2005 - New Britain (267ab/.285Ave/.355OBP/..345SLG/22BB/41SO/10-18SB)
2005 - Ft. Myers (186ab/.339Ave/.410OBP/.403SLG/22BB/25SO/13-17SB)
2004 - Quad Cities (240ab/.267Ave/.358OBP/.308SLG/34BB/49SO/15-23SB)
Span was the top pick in 2002 and has been considered the heir apparent to Torii Hunter's center field position for some time. Often referred to as the fastest player in the system, he is still very young and hasn't played that much baseball due to not signing until the 2002 season was nearly over and struggling with injuries during much of 2003 and 2004. Known as a slap hitter who should develop into an excellent lead off hitter, Span was assigned to the AFL this year where he was the Rafter's lead off hitter leading the team with players such as the Yankee's Eric Duncan and Mets Lastings Milledge in at bats while only 21 years of age. Considering how little professional baseball Span has played, it is easy to understand how he needs some work on his defense and base stealing prior to breaking into the major leagues which should happen some time during 2007. The runner-up in center field is Trent Oeltjen (#20/23/ndfa, 2001) who led all full-season players at Ft. Myers in hitting (.287Ave) prior to joining the Australian National Team in this fall's World Cup.
Right Field - Doug Deeds (#4/25/D9, 2002)
2005 - New Britain (493ab/.304Ave/.382OBP/.479SLG/56BB/119SO/16HR/82RBI)
2004 - Ft. Myers (436ab/.294Ave/.357OBP/.447SLG/43BB/86SO/5HR/57RBI)
Doug Deeds has consistently moved up a level each year and put up numbers at or close to the best on the team, such as this year when he led New Britain with a .304 average and a .382 OBP. Deeds is a former college star from Ohio State who is getting a bit old for a prospect, however, must receive consideration based on his level of talent and production. It is likely Deeds will begin this season at Rochester and could earn a promotion to the Twins later in the season, if needed. Runner-up is a tie between Beloit's leading hitter for average and on base percentage, Jeremy Pickrel (#16/23/D10, 2004), and one of the top young power hitters in the organization who was injured early in his rookie year with the Gulf Coast Twins, Danny Santiesteban (#23/21/D39, 2004), who in 75 at bats led the organization in slugging percentage (.640) with 1 home run in every 12.5 at bats and 1 rbi for every 3.125 at bats.
Designated Hitter - Danny Matienzo (#6/25/D23, 2003)
2005 - New Britain (531ab/.282Ave/.338OBP/.488SLG/40BB/112SO/23HR/87RBI)
2004 - Ft. Myers (455ab/.305Ave/.365OBP/.402SLG/43BB/88SO/5HR/65RBI)
Danny Matienzo was drafted as a catcher out of the University of Miami. He now is a combination catcher, first baseman and designated hitter who has developed excellent power. His 23 home runs in 2005 were amongst the leaders of the system and his 87 RBI were the second most in the system. It is likely that Matienzo has the potential to become a player similar to Matt LeCroy, however, without as severe negatives as far as speed and defense. Matienzo will likely begin the season at Rochester and could be available to help the Twins as early as 2007. In an effort to include the top hitter from Elizabethton, we will again mention a tie for runner-up including Chris Brown (#33/21/ndfa, 2004) who was a non drafted fee agent out of college who performed very well for Beloit after being added to the team from extended spring training following an injury to Johnny Woodard. The other runner-up is Elizabethton's leading hitter, Erik Lis (#15/22/D9, 2005), who finished with a .315 Average and .577 SLG.
Starting Pitcher #1 - Francisco Liriano (#1/23/Pierzynski Trade)
2005 - Minnesota (6g/4gs/23.2ip/1W-2L/5.70era/.268OppAve/7BB/33K)
2005 - Rochester (14g/14gs/91ip/9W-2L/1.78era/.177OppAve/24BB/112K)
2005 - New Britain (13g/13gs/3W-5L/3.64era/.242OppAve/26BB/92K)
2004 - New Britain (7g/7gs/3W-2L/3.18era/17BB/49K)
2004 - Ft. Myers (21g/21gs/6W-7L/3.55era/43BB/125K)
Francisco Liriano was the top pitching prospect in all of baseball in 2005. Much has been written about him so there is little left to say. He will likely be part of the Twins rotation either out of spring training or by mid-summer at the latest. The runner-up is Boof Bonser (#16/24/Pierzynski Trade) who led the International League in strikeouts with 168.
Starting Pitcher #2 - Glen Perkins (#13/23/D1b, 2004)
2005 - Arizona Fall League (7g/7gs/32ip/1W-0L/2.53era/.292OppAve/6BB/39K)
2005 - New Britain (14g/14gs/79ip/4W-4L/4.90era/.263OppAve/35BB/67K)
2005 - Ft. Myers (10g/9gs/55ip/3W-2L/2.13era/.205OppAve/13BB/66K)
2004 - Quad Cities (9g/9gs/48.1ip/2W-1L/1.30era/12BB/49K)
Perkins is on the fast track towards the Twins starting rotation. Known for having excellent control, he struggled with his control while adjusting to AA ball this past summer. He appeared to correct this problem in the AFL and although it isn't necessary to add him to the 40-man roster until 2006, he has been invited to spring training as the Twins continue working with him so that he will be available for the starting rotation by 2007. The runner-up for this starting spot is another lefty who has had similar numbers as Perkins, Errol Simonitsch (#14/23/D6, 2003), pitching with him at their last three stops.
Starting Pitcher #3 - Jay Rainville (#11/20/D1s, 2004)
2005 - Ft. Myers (9g/9gs/54ip/4W-3L/2.67era/.256OppAve/6BB/35K)
2005 - Beloit (16g/16gs/88.1ip/8W-2L/3.77era/.243OppAve/27BB/77K)
2004 - Gulf Coast League (8g/3W-2L/1.83era/3BB/38K)
Jay Rainville improved throughout 2005. He began at Beloit and earned a midseason promotion to Ft. Myers where he was one of the top starters complete with Silva like control with 1BB/9ip. And he accomplished all of this at the age of 19. Look for Rainville to begin the season at Ft. Myers with a summer call up to New Britain. He could reach the Twins by September, 2008 while still 22 years old. The runner-up for this spot is Adam Harben (#7/22/D15, 2002) who was recently added to the Twins 40-man roster.
Starting Pitcher #4 - Anthony Swarzak (#9/20/D2, 2004)
2005 - Ft. Myers (10g/10gs/59ip/3W-4L/3.66era/.300OppAve/11BB/55K)
2005 - Beloit (18g/18gs/91.1ip/9W-5L/4.04era/.238OppAve/32BB/101K)
2004 - Gulf Coast League (11g/5W-3L/2.62era/BB/42K)
Swarzak began the season as Beloit's top pitcher and was promoted to Ft. Myers at midseason with Rainville when three Ft. Myers pitchers were sent up to New Britain. Swarzak also accomplished a lot at the age of 19 and will strike out more hitters than Rainville with Rainville putting a few less on base. Swarzak is on the same track as Rainville and could make the Twins by September, 2008 while also 22 years old. The runner-up for this spot is Nick Blackburn (#6/24/D29, 2001) who had an excellent season earning a mid season selection to the Florida State League all-star team followed by an excellent performance at New Britain and a few games at Rochester.
Starting Pitcher #5 - Kevin Slowey (#2/22/D2b, 2005)
2005 - Beloit (13g/9gs/64.1ip/3W-2L/2.24era/.183OppAve/8BB/69K)
2005 - Elizabethton (4g/0gs/7.2ip/0W-0L/1.17era/.080OppAve/0BB/15K)
Slowey is the next in a line of top college pitchers drafted by the Twins in the second round. Slowey came within an out of hurling a no-hitter for Beloit while putting up numbers amongst the best in the league (1.119BB/9ip/1.073K/ip/.777WHIP) earning Kevin the second spot amongst all Twins system pitchers in 2005 based on my formula. Slowey will likely begin the season at Ft. Myers and move up from there with a real chance of pitching for the Twins within two years of being drafted (summer/fall, 2007) as did Crain and Baker. The runner-up for this spot is fellow 2005 pick, Ryan Mullins (#10/22/D3, 2005), who like Liriano is a high strikeout lefty with huge upside.
Left Handed Long Relief - Jose Mijares (#35/21/ndfa, 2002)
2005 - Ft. Myers (5g/1gs/12ip/0W-0L/1.50era/.116OppAve/5BB/17K)
2005 - Beloit (20g/6gs/54.1ip/6W-3L/4.31era/.219OppAve/40BB/78K)
2004 - Gulf Coast League (19g/29.2ip/4W-0L/2.43era/15BB/25K)
Mijares had an excellent season, especially during his late stint with Ft. Myers. Several scouting organizations remarked about his potential and great arm following the season, causing the Twins to place him on the 40-man roster. At this time it is unknown whether Mijares will be used in relief or as a starter in 2006, therefore, this top prospect is included in a long relief spot. The runner-up for this spot is Kyle Aselton (#25/23/D11, 2004) who had an excellent season for Beloit, especially as a starter during the last two months of the season.
Right Handed Long Relief - Eduardo Morlan (#24/20/D3, 2004)
2005 - Beloit (10g/10gs/51.1ip/4W-4L/4.38era/.207OppAve/31BB/55K)
2005 - Elizabethton (4g/4gs/22ip/2W-0L/0.82era/.085OppAve/6BB/30K)
2004 - Gulf Coast League (11g/25.1ip/1W-2L/2.84era/10BB/28K)
Eduardo Morlan was a high draft pick in the 2004 draft. He is known to have one of the better arms in the organization and is considered a top prospect. At his young age it is still unknown whether he will remain a starter or be used in some type of relief, therefore, I have included him in this long relief spot. The runner-up for this spot is Willie Eyre (#18/27/D23, 1999), who will compete for a spot on the Twins staff in spring training after being added to the 40-man roster following an excellent season of relief at Rochester.
Left Handed Set-up - Alexander Smit (#21/20/ndfa, 2002)
2005 - Beloit (14g/10gs/49.2ip/5.98era/.283OppAve/28BB/54K)
2005 - Elizabethton (21g/0gs/45.2ip/1.97era/.157OppAve/12BB/86K)
2004 - Elizabethton (6g/28.1ip/2.54era/10BB/43K)
Alexander Smit, who signed with the Twins as a 16 year old, has missed part of the last two seasons while participating in International competition with the Dutch National Team. Smit began 2005 as a starter at Beloit, then was returned to Elizabethton where he was used as a reliever. A virtual strikeout machine, Smit had 1.883K/ip at Elizabethton. It is unknown what the future holds for Smit who will be only 20 years old next season, however, he has been included in the set-up role in which he performed so well this season at Elizabethton. It is likely Smit will continue his move up the ladder and could be another 22 year old pitching for the Twins by September, 2008. The runner-up for this spot is Jason Miller (#26/23/D4, 2000), who performed very well at New Britain and Rochester in 2005 and could make it to the Twins by September, 2006.
Right Handed Set-up - Kevin Cameron (#32/26/D13, 2001)
2005 - New Britain (43g/79.1ip/2.72era/.244OppAve/27BB/60K)
2004 - New Britain (26g/46.1ip/1.94era/21BB/47K)
2004 - Ft. Myers (22g/33ip/3.13era/8BB/20K)
Kevin Cameron reportedly had one of the best arms on the New Britain staff and has performed very well at each stop as he has moved up the ladder of the Twins minor league system. It is likely Kevin will be at Rochester in 2006 and could make his debut with the Twins at some time in 2007. The runner-up for the right handed set-up spot is 18 year old Australian Matt Williams (#40/19/ndfa, 2004), who had an excellent season for the Gulf Coast Twins including 1.125K/ip and a 1.93era.
Closer - Pat Neshek (#5/25/D6, 2002)
2005 - New Britain (55g/82.1ip/2.19era/.225OppAve/21BB/95K)
Minnesota native Pat Neshek was converted to a closer in 2004 and put up excellent numbers this past season at New Britain, including 24 saves in 29 opportunities. Neshek, who has an unusual delivery, struck out 1.154 batters per inning pitched at New Britain. Pat was added to the 40-man roster this fall and will likely begin 2006 at Rochester with a late season call up a possibility. The runner-up for the closer spot is J.P. Martinez (#17/24/D9, 2004) who performed very well at Beloit, including a 1.83 era with 20 saves in 28 opportunities.

You know, I have really enjoyed each of Roger's Minor League positional reviews, and I'm really glad that he was able to sum it up so well today with a prospect team. If you only knew how much time Roger puts into following the Twins minor leaguers, you would appreciate it even more. I really respect all of his thoughts on the Twins system because I know that he follows the Twins system almost as much, ok, maybe even more than I do. So again, thank you Roger!
Now to my thoughts on his All Prospect team:
To be honest, it is difficult to really disagree with many of his picks. As you can see, catcher is a weak position in the system. I would guess that Roger and I both believe that 17 year old Allan de San Miguel may have the biggest upside. Also, Elizabethton had three catchers who could be considered, in Eli Tintor, Caleb Moore and Sean Richardson. At first base, I would agree with his choices. I, of course, still am high on Brock Peterson. It will be interesting to see what he is able to do at New Britain next year. At 2B, I'm very high on Juan Portes, but after reading Roger's take on Casilla last week, comparing his numbers in the Midwest League to the Beloit hitters, it is hard to disagree that he has a bright future. At Shortstop, I know that I think Drew Thompson and Paul Kelly both have a chance. Terry Ryan said in his Q&A online that his scouts frequently discuss Kelly's potential. But, I was also intrigued by the possibilities of E-Town's Yancarlos Ortiz. Rounding out the infield, how do you choose between Matt Moses and the system's player of the year, David Winfree? Well, clearly Moses is thought of more highly nationally, or by those who make prospect lists. But I think Twins fans can be almost equally excited about the future of Winfree, although Winfree will likely become a designated hitter.
In the outfield, I completely agree with Roger's starters. I'm quite high on Span and Romero, as many are, but Doug Deeds has been nothing but solid and consistent the last couple of years. I'm glad that Roger gave him his due. Richard Sojo, who played for the GCL, is another name I would mention, and maybe even E-Towns Mark Robinson.
Starting pitching... how do you even decide? I actually completely agree with Roger's top five starters. Liriano, Rainville, Swarzak and Slowey were all pitchers who ranked in my Top 10 Twins prospects (Perkins ranked #14 after a tough second half. His performance in the Arizona Fall League moves him back up the list). The other two were Scott Baker who should not be on a prospect list any longer as he has too many innings pitched, and Adam Harben, who I am maybe too high on. Let's see. We could put a second starting rotation of Harben, Nick Blackburn, Justin Jones, Boof Bonser and Matt Garza and rank highly. A third team of Kyle Waldrop, Eduardo Morlan, Ryan Mullins, Errol Simonitsch and Jose Mijares presents some high ceiling prospects. And there are more, like Adam Hawes and Alex Burnett, who could be very good. I could talk about the Twins pitching prospects all day long! Oh, and that bullpen that Roger selected is very strong too!

What to do? What to do?? (The Kyle Lohse Story)
Well, teams were supposed to meet with their arbitration-eligible players yesterday and discuss their hopes for their 2006 contract. The team tells the player (ok, his agent) what they believe he should be paid. The agent, of course, says that number is too low and says what he believes his player is worth. The third option, an option which seemed to be prevalent yesterday, was for the two teams to exchange numbers and then meet somewhere in the middle or come up with a multi-year contract.
Now, the Twins players who are eligible for salary arbitration are Kyle Lohse, Michael Cuddyer and Nick Punto. I have heard nothing about these negotiations. I figured that at least Cuddyer and Punto would settle on a contract pretty quickly, and they still might. I hope that things work quickly with Kyle Lohse as well. Not because I think he is someone that the Twins should prioritize, but they seemingly have decided to keep him around. Therefore, let's just get him signed and move on. However, Scott Boras is his agent, so I don't envision a quick signing. Boras will try to get as much as he can for his player. (Side note - I have no problem with Scott Boras. He is just doing his job. Yes, his players get max money much of the time, but the owners are willing to give it to him, meaning he is getting full market value for his players... but I digress...)
I am really wondering what the plan is for Kyle Lohse. All last year, and most of the offseason, my hope was that he would not be back in 2006. My hope was that the money saved by removing Lohse's contract could be used to acquire a bat or two. I just believed that with Scott Baker and Francisco Liriano pretty much ready (and at the league minimum cost-wise), that would just make sense. However, I am now thinking of this differently, somewhat. Yes, I think that the team could be better with the two youngsters in the rotation, but I can see it from Terry Ryan's perspective as well.
He just does not trust rookies at all. Scott Baker is technically not a rookie, but still has less than 52 innings under his belt. He will not trust Baker and Liriano to be vital cogs in the Twins rotation. Let's go with that theory because Terry Ryan has probably been right more than me! So, Lohse comes back as the fourth starter allowing Baker to be the #5.
Here is the 2006 Twins starting rotation:
Johan Santana
Brad Radke
Carlos Silva
Kyle Lohse
Scott Baker
That is a rotation that we can be very comfortable with, I believe. But what happens after 2006 if Brad Radke really does retire? Even if we assume that the team resigns Carlos Silva and Francisco Liriano is ready, here is the 2007 Twins rotation:
Johan Santana
Carlos Silva
Scott Baker
Francisco Liriano
So, I am beginning to wonder if the team is contemplating signing Kyle Lohse to a two or three year deal now so that the team will not be "stuck" with another rookie pitcher in that rotation in 2007. Yes, the Twins could have guys like Boof Bonser, Willie Eyre, Glen Perkins, Nick Blackburn, Errol Simonitsch, Adam Harben, Justin Jones or other pitching prospects who could compete for the 5th starter spot. But will Terry Ryan want that, especially considering he would have two pitchers with less than two years of big league experience.
Kyle Lohse has been an enigma his who five year big league career. He still shows signs of potential greatness. He has great 'stuff.' He will be just 27 years old the entire 2006 season. He has never had an injury that has kept him from making a start. He has thrown over 178 innings all four of his full seasons. He has made at least 30 starts all four of those years. He is coming off a year where his ERA dropped to 4.18, a number well below the league average and the best of his career. He is a solid fielder for a pitcher.
Yes, Lohse continues to frustrate for extended periods of time during the season, but Jon Garland did the same thing in his career and then busted out last year. That is not the only example. Again, this is his 27 year old season and a pitcher's best seasons are generally between 27 and 29. Maybe a three year deal would make some sense. To me, there are two reasons to do it:
Lohse would need to agree to settle for a little less money in 2006, allowing the Twins more payroll flexibility in July.
He would make big money in both 2007 and 2008. However, if he does take that next step as a quality starting pitcher, he will be worth the money. Also, Brad Radke's $9 million per year would be off the books.
So, maybe I would encourage the Twins to give Lohse a three year deal worth. In arbitration, I think that Lohse would win between $3.5 and $4 million in 2006. So, how about a contract in which Lohse made $3.4 million in 2006, $5.5 million in 2007 and $7.5 million in 2008? Initially, I would say that a three year, $16.4 million would be too much for Lohse. However, Garland just signed a 3 year, $27 million deal with the White Sox and as I mentioned, we know that Scott Boras took notice of that! If you don't like the idea of a three year deal, how about a two year, $10.5 million deal in which he would make $4.25 million in 2006 and $6.25 million in 2007?
As for Michael Cuddyer? I really don't know what he'll make. My guess is that his agent will look for upwards of $1.4 million. The Twins would probably offer about $800,000. They'll probably settle on a one year deal with him for about $1 million. This of course makes 2006 a huge year for Cuddy. Because he will again be arbitration-eligible next year and make probably twice as much, he needs a bust out year. And, how is that possible unless he becomes an every day player somewhere!
And Nick Punto? Why did they offer him arbitration again? But again, because the Twins gave him so many at bats last year, he will likely make somewhere between $750,000 and $900,000. Uggh!
(After writing this before American Idol last night, I went to the Pioneer Press and saw the actual numbers that were exchanged. The Twins offered Lohse $3.4 million while Boras asked for $3.9 million. Cuddyer asked for $1.5 million while the Twins countered with $1.1 million. Punto asked for $850,000 and the Twins offered $625,000. I am actually surprised that the Twins and Lohse are as close as they are. It leads me to believe that it may not go to arbitration, and also that a multi-year deal is possible. Cuddyer and Punto are both very close. I bet that Cuddyer signs for about $1.25 million and Punto will get about $750,000.)
What do you think about this? E-mail me.
It's that time of year again! Last night was the first episode of American Idol! I know! I know! Many of you won't read a single word I write when it comes to this section, and that is completely fine. However, I also know that I receive many hits from people who only read my site when American Idol is on. Now, the next couple of weeks, I will only be posting some random thoughts. However, once the actual competition begins, I will again do my analysis of each performer and make my picks. So, be sure to check back each Wednesday and Thursday for my American Idol thoughts and predictions. Now, on to a couple of thoughts on last night's first episode, the Chicago auditions.
The Brittenum Twins were absolutely incredible. Their voices meshed so well together. I was just as impressed by the fact that their duet was an original meaning that they are musically inclined and not just song memorizers. I would say that Derrell is a little bit stronger a singer and may last a little longer, but Terrell is very good too!
The Barrettsmith Sisters were also very good. Elder sister, Brooke, is much better than Leah in my opinion, but I don't anticipate either getting real far.
The Simmons Twins, two 16 year olds were absolutely incredible in their duet of Superstar. Both were spectacular in the solo areas as well as when they harmonize. Joshua is great. However, Jared is just as good vocally, but he has far more charisma which could carry him further.
Dave Hoover who could do videos for House of Pain's Jump Around, somehow was allowed to go to Hollywood. After listening to his 'song', I was thinking that the judges would tell him to "pack it up, pack it in", but instead Paula and Randy passed him through, much to the dismay of Simon Cowell. I was shocked!
Simon was on fine form a couple of times. When Mandisa (sang Fallen) was passed to Hollywood, Simon said, "Do we have a bigger stage this year?" Paula hit him! She said that she reminds her of Frenchie! Simon quickly came back with, "She reminds me a France!" That's rude, but it reminded me that former AI runner-up Dianna Degarmo will be joining Frenchie Davis as a performer on Broadway. Degarmo will play a role in Hairspray while Davis is in Rent.
I would guess that both Zachary Smits and David Radford, both 17 and both crooner-type singers, will do well in this. Paula blushed while listening to Radford and later told him that she 'liked his package.'
Crystal... Wow! What do you even say? She may have been the least smart person ever, but she wasn't actually a terrible singer. But yeah, not smart. I don't think anyone would have been able to put up with her in Hollywood!
And, one final Simon mean quote... to Charles Barry he said, he "needs to shave off his beard and take up a career as a female impersonator." Ouch! And yeah, if I was Charles, I think I would have been embarrassed too!
Best part of the show was the Eva Mendes Revlon commercial!
Episode #2 is on tonight. I will have to tape it, I guess, because I don't want to miss it!
What do you think? Any thoughts on American Idol? E-mail me.
On that note, I am going to call it a day. I am very excited about tonight. I think it is going to be a lot of fun. I hope that plenty of people attend because it would be nice if the Twins would want to make an appearance here every year! If you have any comments, opinions, or ideas for future articles, please e-mail me.

Hey guys!
I just got Flash this week, and I know there are hundreds of great Flash tutorials online, but I dislike how a lot of them are taught. I have quite a bit of programming experience, as well as plenty of experience in digital media, so I'm not so much concerned with learning AS3 or learning how to use the tools in Flash.
The problem is that I don't understand the very basic core concepts of Flash... and its hard to find a good tutorial that teaches the specific things for which I'm looking.
Does anyone out there understand at least the basics of Flash and would be willing to spend 10 minutes or so answering a few of my questions?
Here are a few of them:
...and I know I'll have more once I think of them, but this is sufficient for now.
Thank you to anyone who can help! <3
1. You can dole out the actionscript as you please, though some folks will recommend keeping actionscript 1) in layers dedicated to actionscript and/or 2) in the first frame, and/or 3) in separate aActionscript/class files. I am not one of them, though I do practice these things anyways more often than not.
2. MovieClip symbols and Graphic symbols have their own timelines. Sprites do not use timelines. Button symbols (SimpleButtons) have semi-timelines... actually moreso states defined by frames. Each of these will function independently within a parent timeline, although a Graphic symbol in a timeline must extend along it for the same number of frames that it has in order for it to play out its timeline... it cannot exist as an animation in a single frame like a MovieClip.

FBI, IRS investigate Pilot-Flying J.
Updated On: Apr 16 2013 04:51:55 PM CDT
FBI and Internal Revenue Service agents on Monday locked down the headquarters of Pilot Flying J, the truck stop business owned by the family of Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam and his brother, Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam.
FBI spokesman Marshall Stone told The Associated Press that the move was part of an ongoing investigation, but he would not provide additional details.
FBI and IRS agents were expected to remain in the building into the evening, he said.
The FBI was keeping all traffic away from the company property, and Knoxville police patrol cars and officers could be seen outside the headquarters.
"Any details that would be released to the public would not be available for some time," Stone said.
The company doesn't know why FBI officials closed the headquarters but is cooperating with authorities, spokeswoman Lauren Christ said in a statement.
Pilot Flying J retail operations remain open, she said.
Jimmy Haslam stepped down as company CEO after buying the Browns from previous owner Randy Lerner in a $1 billion deal in August.
He was previously a minority owner of the rival Pittsburgh Steelers but sold that.

Seahawks cut Edwards after disappointing stint |
RENTON, Wash. (AP) -- The Seattle Seahawks have cut wide receiver Braylon Edwards after a season during which he had little impact on the offense and placed starting left guard James Carpenter on the season-ending reserve/non-football illness list.
Seattle made the moves Tuesday afternoon. Edwards was waived with an injury distinction, but no specific injury was cited. The Seahawks now have just five healthy wide receivers.
Edwards had just eight catches for 74 yards and one touchdown in 10 games.
Carpenter returned from a serious knee injury last season and started seven games for the Seahawks at left guard. But he left early in Sunday's win over Chicago after experiencing what Pete Carroll called a sharp pain in his surgically repaired knee. Seattle signed offensive lineman Rishaw Johnson from the practice squad.

The Dart Sip Thru Lids are awesome. We opt for these because they fit most cups universally. We have 12oz and 20oz cups and they have a nice snug fit on both.
Brittany W. from Fix it with Frosting Posted on 08/26/2013
We purchased these for our cupcake shop to serve coffee. Next time we order, we will pay a little extra for the lids with tabs that pull back. The small slit in this lid allows very little fluid through.

Fits nicely on cup. Easy to open, light weight.

ESPN insider on Whisenhunt: Shouldn't be fired, but might be
At that point the franchise will have some important decisions to make, not the least of which is what to do at head coach.
Do they keep Ken Whisenhunt, who in six seasons with the team has won a pair of NFC West titles and taken the Cardinals to the Super Bowl? Or do they fire a coach whose career record is 45-49, and has gone just 18-28 over the last three seasons?
They are the same guy, after all.
"The realization that [Whisenhunt's] entering the last year of his contract, when you start to do that then you start to say 'OK, is it time to do the extension,'" ESPN NFL insider John Clayton told Arizona Sports 620's Doug and Wolf Thursday. "And if they don't do the extension and they start to review things and look at this season there might very well be a change."
"I think it'd be a mistake because I think he's too good of a coach to let go, but I think you can understand the circumstances."
Listen: John Clayton, ESPN NFL insider The Professor gives us insight into the stories headlining the NFL this week.
"Those things, unfortunately, are going to be held against him," Clayton said. "Should he be fired? No. Will he be fired? Maybe."

LEWISBURG — Lions are the largest of all service clubs around the world. Shortly after Lions International was organized, Helen Keller challenged the Lions to become "Knights of the Blind" and to this day the blind is the unifying theme of the organization. That is also true with Lewisburg Lions.
The Lewisburg Lions have received tremendous support and more than half of those funds have been used in the local community. The by-laws of Lionism require that 100 percent of all donations from non-Lions be given to charitable causes. All costs of Lions club organization must be borne by members. Thus any Lion you see is contributing from his or her own time or pocket for the privilege of serving others — hence the motto "We Serve".
During the past year, Lewisburg Lions contributed nearly $1,100 to people in the area needing help with eye glasses. Last year, over 600 pair of used eyeglasses were placed in the Lions collection box at Evangical Hospital. Many of those sunglasses were given to people in Guatamaula, and the remainder were presented to a regional Lions Eyeblank center and reconditioned and used throughout the world.
Additional dollars were contributed to: Boy Scout Troop 509, $100; the Lewisburg Shade Tree Commission, $450, plus the labor for planting; and Northeast Pa. Lions EyeBank, $100.
The NE Eyebank works with over 60 hospitals covering a 37 county area and is considered the fifth largest EyeBank by volume in the United States. When local people sign up to provide a cornea donation, this is where the information is recorded. Many people in the northeastern region of Pennsylvania receive donated corneas and the financial contributions from Lions throughout the region support that effort. Contact the Lewisburg Lions for an application to make a cornea donation.
Other donations were made to the Donald Heiter Community Center, $100; Leader Dog for the Blind, $200.
Leader Dogs for the Blind has over 1,500 people using Leader Dog for the Blind trained dogs. If you or a member of your family ever need a Leader Dog, they can receive a Leader Dog for free, because of Lions support from across the country.
Other donations went to Beacon Lodge for the Blind, $200, and Camp Victory near Millville, $200. An additional $1,700 was presented to the Lewisburg Community Fourth of July Parade.
For any man or women who would like to join this "We Serve" group and would like to have a membership application, call Lion President Matt Hepner at 524-0961.

The academic progress of students at the University of Memphis is monitored at the conclusion of each term enrolled to determine their academic status. Students' overall combined grade point average AND term grade point average are considered in determining status. There are four progressive levels of academic status:
(1) Good Standing
(2) Academic Warning
(3) Academic Probation
(4) Academic Suspension
Good Standing
Students are in Good Standing at the University of Memphis unless placed on Academic Warning, Academic Probation or Academic Suspension.
If a student has never been on Academic Warning, Academic Probation or Academic Suspension…
The student remains in Good Standing as long as the overall combined GPA is 2.00 or above AND the term GPA is not lower than 1.00.
If a student has been on Academic Warning, Academic Probation or Academic Suspension…
The student is expected to maintain a minimum overall combined GPA of 2.00 AND a minimum term GPA of 2.00 in order to remain in good standing.
Academic Warning
Students can be placed on Academic Warning ONLY ONCE during their enrollment at the University of Memphis. After completing seven (7) hours of coursework, students will be placed on Academic Warning when their overall combined GPA is below 2.00 OR the term GPA is below 1.00. Once students receive an Academic Warning, they must maintain Good Standing or they will be placed on probation or suspension.
Students on Academic Warning must:
Failure to satisfy these requirements will lead to administrative withdrawal from all classes for any future terms.
Academic Probation
Any student who has ever been placed on Academic Warning status will be placed on Academic Probation if:
NOTE: Students who have regained Good Standing after an Academic Warning are placed on Academic Probation, if, in any subsequent term, their combined GPA falls below a 2.00 OR the term GPA below 2.00.
First Academic Probation
All students placed on Academic Probation for the first time will be required to:
Enroll in a one (1) credit hour Student Success Seminar;
Submit weekly academic progress reports to their counselor during the term; and
Must follow all requirements of the Center for Academic Retention and Enrichment Services including referral to campus services such as tutoring, study skills workshops, etc.
Continuing on Probation
Students will remain on Academic Probation if the term GPA is 2.00 or higher but the overall combined GPA remains below 2.00.
Subsequent Probation(s)
Students who are placed on probation more than one time will have to complete a Conditional Enrollment Agreement with the Center for Academic Retention and Enrichment Services. During this probation, students will be required to have an overall combined GPA of at least 2.00 OR a term GPA of at least 2.00 in order to continue enrollment.
Academic Suspension
Students on probation will be suspended in the following term if their overall combined GPA is below 2.00 AND the term GPA is below 2.00.
Students on academic suspension can apply for readmission only after the following minimum periods:
After a second suspension, a student may be ineligible for further enrollment at the University of Memphis.
Students on academic suspension who apply for readmission must participate in a counseling interview. Deadlines for readmission after suspension are strictly enforced.
Coursework taken at another accredited college or university will be used in determining eligibility for readmission. Students who left the university on academic suspension must fulfill all previously attempted high school deficiency and remedial and developmental coursework requirements before they will be considered for readmission.
Students readmitted after Academic Suspension must sign a Conditional Enrollment Agreement and follow all requirements established by the Center for Academic Retention and Enrichment Services. Failure to follow these requirements will lead to administrative withdrawal from all classes.
The Center for Academic Retention and Enrichment Services, 500 Wilder Tower, is responsible for the administration of this policy.

Australian Cruising
Sail-World.com : Dockwise Yacht Transport heads to Brisbane with $35m in yachts onboard
Dockwise Yacht Transport heads to Brisbane with $35m in yachts onboard
'Dockwise Yacht Transport semi submersible yacht carrier Super Servant 3 in Golfito Costa Rica.'
Dockwise Yacht Transport
The city of Brisbane, capital of Queensland and Australia's third most populous city, will welcome Dockwise Yacht Transport's (DYT) Super Servant 4 with open arms this month when the 169.49 meter (556 foot) orange semi-submersible ship berths at Fisherman's Island Terminal to unload a cargo of yachts worth approximately US $35 million.
It has been one year since the ship's last trip here was diverted to Sydney due to extreme flooding that devastated Brisbane and many other Queensland locations.
Jason Roberts, President of Aurora Global Logistics and DYT's exclusive commercial agent for Australia, sees the ship's return as proof positive of the rebounding yacht manufacturing and boat transport industries as well as the cruising market that Brisbane so well serves in the South Pacific.
'Brisbane is in the process of rebuilding,' said Roberts, explaining that when the Brisbane River's riverbanks broke last January, an overflow level of 4.45 meters (14.6 feet) was reached, and approximately 20,000 houses were flooded.
'At the same time, the Australian economy has survived the global downturn to be quite strong, and this DYT voyage adds momentum to both of those things. We are excited for this voyage as well as many more to come in the future.'
Roberts added that Brisbane's location halfway between Sydney and the Great Barrier Reef make it a perfect drop point for DYT, which operates on a regular schedule to deliver private yachts and charter boats to prime cruising destinations around the world.
Looking something like a giant moving marina when it comes to town, the Super Servant 4, once docked, will submerge itself by pumping nine million gallons of water into its ballast tanks. After scuba divers remove sea-fasteners from each yacht, captains, owners and/or crews will be free to disembark under their own power and be off to new adventures.
Super Servant 4 departed Palma de Mallorca (Spain) in December 2011 and will have made stops in Martinique (France), Port Everglades (Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.), and Golfito (Costa Rica) before arriving in Brisbane. From Brisbane, it will head to Auckland (New Zealand) and return to Port Everglades before heading to Toulon (France) in early April.
DYT's second 'float-on/float-off' voyage to the South Pacific this year will begin in Palma de Mallorca in November, with stops in Martinique, Port Everglades, Golfito, Brisbane, and Auckland, and return to Port Everglades and the Mediterranean in spring 2013.

CHALLENGES FOR PLANTS WITH DISPOSABLE BIOREACTORS Various disposable bioreactor systems are currently on the market. We have summarized our experiences with two of them. The major obstacles both wave and hollow-fiber systems face are: Limitation in scale Limited supplier sources Limited experiences in facility design and operation.
The AcuSyst hollow-fiber bioreactor family is limited by its largest system (AcuSyst XCELLERATOR) to 20 simultaneous cartridges in continuous perfusion. The WAVE family is limited to 500 L net culture volume per batch. The basic design of a commercial plant, equipped with single-use technology, revealed low capital expenditures. This is in accord with independent estimates for a biomanufacturing modular concept facility combined with single-use technology that was presented by Stedim and Applicon Corporations at bioLOGICS 2004 in Geneva,20 and with other reports in the literature.21, 22
Within the next 10 to 15 years, market trends will lead to a growing demand for highly flexible, multi-product plants that can produce an average annual capacity of 10 to 100 kg of purified mammalian cell-expressed protein.
