Ranking the Top 10 Basketball Players in the Pac 12
Top 10 Pac 12 Basketball Players
For Pac 12 standards, last year was a down year for the conference as only two teams made the NCAA Tournament. Colorado and California were those two teams but the conference's regular season champion, Washington, didn't even qualify for the big dance.
If not for Colorado advancing past their first game, last season might have gone down as the worst power conference performance in recent memory.
With that said, as the Pac 12 tries to bounce back and repair its national perception, the conference isn't without its talented players. In the 2012 recruiting cycle the conference had two of the top three classes in the country (UCLA No. 1, Arizona No. 3). So as far as recruiting goes the national perception is still pretty high and top recruits still want to attend Pac 12 schools.
As the college basketball season gets going it's always interesting to project who the top 10 players in each conference will be. Some are seasoned veterans, others are returning core players and the rest are ballyhooed freshmen that come in highly regarded and highly recruited.
For the sake of this top 10 list I tried to balance returning stars with incoming freshmen. It's hard to say where a freshmen would fit in the conference seeing as they haven't played a single game yet. However, looking at the freshmen on this list it's hard not to include them due to their national ranking.
So without further ado here are the top 10 Pac 12 players heading into the 2012-2013 season.
10. Kaleb Tarczewski- Arizona
Besides Shabazz Muhammad, Tarczewski is the best incoming recruit to the Pac 12 this season.
Arizona beat out Kansas, Kentucky and North Carolina to land the big man and it will be worth it for the Wildcats. He's as skilled of a big man as there is in the conference and he can only get better.
He can run the floor extremely well for his size (7 feet, 240 lbs) and is an explosive finisher at the rim. He'll cause problems at the rim for any offensive player trying to score and he should have an immediate impact on the glass.
Arizona had one of the best recruiting classes in the country and Tarc should be one of the favorites for conference freshmen of the year.
9. Brock Motum- Washington State
Motum returns as the conference's leading scorer after averaging 18 ppg last season. He's probably the least known conference leading scorer out of the power conference's but he's a force to be reckoned with.
He has a constant motor and can score either with his back to the basket or facing up a defender. He is a dark horse candidate for player of the year but he's a long shot at best.
Regardless, he's one of the top players in the conference even though he's not as flashy, simply put he gets the job done.
8. CJ Wilcox- Washington
Wilcox is one of the only star holdovers from last year's Pac 12 regular season champs as they lost two of their top underclassmen early to the NBA.
As for Wilcox he is one of the best sharpshooters in the country and will lead the Huskies as they try to bounce back after missing the NCAA Tournament last year.
It's almost unheard of for a "big six" regular season champion to miss the tournament but the Huskies and Wilcox will try to remove that stain this year.
7. Nick Johnson- Arizona
There's a lot of talent, especially young talent, on the Arizona roster but Johnson may step up as their best player.
The ball is in his hands a lot and he's a great play maker. Besides setting up his teammates Johnson has no problem scoring on his own but he needs to be more consistent and not have the up and down games like he had last season.
If he can do that there's no telling how good the Wildcats can actually be.
6. Allen Crabbe- California
Crabbe returns as one of the top scoring threats in the conference. Last season as a sophomore he finished fifth in the conference averaging 15.3 ppg.
With the departure of Jorge Gutierrez, Crabbe will become the main focus for opposing teams to stop so it might be a tough go for him this season. It would be unwise to doubt him however as he can score against all types of defense.
It might be a down year for Cal but Crabbe is still expected to put up big numbers.
5. Mark Lyons- Arizona
Perhaps the biggest addition to the Wildcats didn't come in the form of a new recruit, rather by way of a transfer.
Lyons, who came to Tucson after playing three seasons for Xavier, will be a nice compliment to Arizona's core group of young players. He will fill the point position for head coach Sean Miller, the same coach that originally recruited him to Xavier coming out of high school.
He averaged 15 points last year and a little over three rebounds a game. Lyons' main aspirations are to make it to the NBA so being a compliment might not suit his style in Tucson but I'm sure Arizona will welcome the offense.
I'm also sure that Lyons won't mind taking a back seat to any of their other talented players from time to time as well.
4. Chasson Randle- Stanford
Last year Randle was one of the top freshmen in the conference but as he enters his sophomore campaign he has the potential to be one of the top players in the whole Pac 12.
As a freshmen he averaged just under 14 points per game and he led the conference with 85 made three-pointers. Perhaps his best trait is his tremendous defense.
His ability to be a lock-down perimeter defender has improved his standing throughout the rest of the league. I'm expecting a breakout season for Randle as he vaults himself into one of the top 5 players in the league.
3. Solomon Hill- Arizona
Hill has played with tremendous poise ever since he came to Arizona three years ago. Now in his senior season he's surrounded by a group of talented players but Hill still stands out as their top player.
He can score from anywhere on the floor and has been a really consistent player the last three seasons. Last year he averaged 13 points per game to go along with 7.7 rpg. Hill is a lock down defender and he can consistently affect shots at the rim.
Hill's started the last 78 games he's played in and along with being one of the top returning players he's also one of the favorites to carry home some hardware at season's end.
2. Shabazz Muhammad- UCLA
Muhammad was the top ranked recruit in the Pac 12 this season and he has the potential to contend for the conference player of the year award due to his tremendous athletic ability.
He knows how to take over games and that should translate well to the collegiate level. Muhammad is effective in both the open court and in half-court sets. He can get to the rim at will and uses his size to dominate the glass. There's a reason he was the highest rated recruit in the entire country and the rest of the Pac 12 will soon know why.
Muhammad is most likely a one-and-done player for the Bruins and could be a lottery pick if he dominates like he did in his prep days.
1. Andre Roberson- Colorado
Roberson has been dubbed as the best player nobody has heard of but that's not the case in the Pac 12.
The double-double machine is considered the early favorite for both the conference's Defensive Player of the Year and the MVP award. Roberson was the nation's third leading rebounder last year (11.1 rpg) and had 20 double-doubles. Roberson is freakishly athletic and his offensive skills have improved each year, which includes a consistent long-range jumper.
In his first two seasons in Boulder he was overshadowed by Alec Burks, Cory Higgins and Carlon Brown but Colorado is finally his team this year. If last year's thrilling run was any indication, Roberson has the potential to lead the Buffs even deeper into March this season.
Roberson's draft stock has continued to rise and by seasons end he'll be a name that the rest of the country won't overlook.

Photo Flash: New Production Shots from MTF's THE DISAPPEARING MAN, Opening Tonight
The Musical Theatre Factory (MTF) presents a showcase production of THE DISAPPEARING MAN, a new folk opera with book, music, and lyrics by Jahn Sood. This production follows a sold-out concert at Joe's Pub and a standing-room-only development reading in the spring of 2013. THE DISAPPEARING MAN takes place backstage at a small-time travelling circus in 1936. When the headliner is offered another job, the motley troupe must decide whether to adapt to the change or fight to keep the family together. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
The production stars Mike Longo (Hair national tour) and Mary Kate Morrissey (Hair national tour), with Jason SweetTooth Williams (Bloodsong of Love), Jeremy Morse (Bloodsong of Love), Luke Wygodny (American Idiot national tour), Katie Melby, Andrew Lynch (Blue Man Group), Lizzie Hagstedt(Southern Comfort), and Jeremy Yaddaw.
THE DISAPPEARING MAN was originally conceived while Sood was on tour with the band Ezra Furman & the Harpoons and was subsequently workshopped in Cambridge, MA with a director and cast from the ART's Inst. for Adv. Theater Training. In 2013, Sood began a new phase of development with director Shakina Nayfack and music director Brian Cavanagh-Strong, the team behind this Musical Theatre Factory showcase.
Performances are tonight, January 17-19, 23-25 at 8pm, and January 20 & 21 at 7pm. Tickets are $15 in advance, $18 at the door, and are available at Brown Paper Tickets (http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/544268).

One of my daughters is named for Odyssius's wife.
Smart man Odysseus, he knew how not to listen to the song of death.
"The war will be over in six weeks and pay for itself."
You should never trust anything a neo-con says.
Odysseus was the only one on the ship who WAS allowed to listen to the Sirens.
Friedman says that every American president who has dealt with Iraq since 1990 has done everything perfectly, but it didn't work because the Iraqis are too stupid to take advantage of the benevolent intercessions by four presidents. So, since the Iraqis haven't suddenly gotten smart, Friedman says the only rational thing the US can do is stay as far away from Iraq as possible.
Of course, a large number of people have pointed out what a terrible foreign policy Obama has imposed on the US: 'Don't do stupid [stuff]', when Cohan, Kristof, and Slaughter of the New York Times and two Cheneys writing in the Wall Street Journal maintain strongly that Obama's foreign policy is absolutely terrible, and the US has a DUTY and OBLIGATION to do stupid [stuff].
I'm not clever enough to come up with any of these, I'm just summarising, but of the proposals, I think the best is that we need to give ISIS in Syria all the weapons they need to overthrow the government, while droning every member of ISIS who crossed the border into Iraq, where the government was installed by the US, so the US has a solemn duty to protect it.
And let us not forget that George H. W. Bush was proffered the SAME plan by the SAME people – and HE was smart enough to turn it down. Because THAT Bush actually spent some time out in the world and knew the neocon fantasy was just that.
Sadly, he was right, and his son didn't get it.
GHWB could have and was recommended to send troops into Bagdad to overthrow Hussein but other advisers told him he would own Iraq for years if he did so. He (imo) correctly recalled the troops and let the contractors repair the oil fields.
George H.W. Bush's agreement with the Saudis did not allow taking Iraq.
Why does the US let the Saudis call the shots?
The same totally wrong "experts" want the same thing again.
"Why does the US let the Saudis call the shots?"
Because the Bushes and the Saudis are close business partners.
Didn't this latest mess come out Syria?
There's a wonderful book by Margaret Atwood entitled, "The Penelopiad," about Penelope's life as Odysseus' wife from her point of view.
And I should have added that GHWB disagreed with the Iraq invasion in 2003, as well.
Unlike his son, George HW Bush built a strong international alliance — a real alliance, where in fact we not only spent no money, we arguably made a profit (cf. a friend of mine who was minor staff in the Bush White House) — to do a specific task, which was done quickly and efficiently. He resisted nation-building, and he was right to do so. He could have gone further had he wanted to. He was FAR more wise in international affairs than his son.
Do stuff in Iraq. Get people killed. Don't do stuff in Iraq. Get people killed. Eyuck.

Yeah, I assumed that when it didn't work. But, I lack ASM skills. I'll play around with it a bit more though to see if there's a non-ASM alternative. There probably isn't but, why not try to find one?

SPIDERS AND THEIR RELATIVES The bodies of these animals are divided into two segments: a cephalothorax and an abdomen. Chelicerates (spiders and their relatives) share three characteristics: First, cheliceraes do not have sensory antennae, Second, most have simple eyes, and Third, all chelicerates have a pair of appendages called chelicerae Chelicerae are the anterior-most appendages, modified into pincers or fangs for killing prey and in some species the chelicerae can inject poison. Most live in terrestrial environments. In order to successfully live on land, the organism had to evolve with ways to retain water in their bodies. Terrestrial chelicerates have three structures that aid in water retention: Malpighian tubules, an exoskeleton, and book lungs Malpighian tubules are excretory structures that remove metabolic wastes from blood and return water to the cells. Book lungs provide efficient gas exchange without water loss. They are called book lungs because they look like the inverted pages of a book. Horseshoe crabs are marine animals that belong to the small class Merostomata. There are only four living species of horseshoe crabs and three of these species live off the coast of Southeast Asia with one species of horseshoe crab that lives in the coastal regions of the western North Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico. The horseshoe crab is not really a crab. Horseshoe crabs belong to an ancient class of marine arthropods that evolved about 400 million years ago. Scientists often refer to the four surviving species of horseshoe crabs as "living fossils" because they closely resemble their fossil ancestors. Horseshoe crabs have both compound and simple eyes and do not have Malpighian tubules. Horseshoe crabs exchange gases in five pairs of book gills which are similar to book lungs and may have evolved into book lungs found in terrestrial arachnids. Horseshoe crabs are among the few chelicerates that eat solid food by feeding on clam worms, soft- shelled clams, and other animals. Arachnids are terrestrial chelicerates that make up the much larger class Arachnida. There are three familiar orders of arachnids: spiders, scorpions, and mites and ticks. All arachnids have a cephalothorax with six pairs of appendages: one pair of chelicerae, one pair of specialized appendages called pedipalps, and four pairs of walking legs. Pedipalps are used for holding food and sense organs. The first order of arachnids includes spiders. QuickTime™ an d a Sorenson Video 3 decompre ssor are need ed to see this p icture . Spiders are divided into two groups based on how they gather food; individuals that hunt prey and individuals that weave webs to catch prey. Hunting spiders usually have strong legs and excellent eyesight. Web weavers generally have long, slender legs and relatively poor eyesight. Although not all spiders weave webs, they all produce silk. Some spiders use silk for movement-as droplines or parachutes. Other spiders use silk for protection-as a covering for their burrows or a canopy under which they sleep. Still other spiders use silk to wrap their food for storage. Spiders paralyze or kill their prey with chelicerae modified into fangs. While holding their prey with their pedipalps, spiders secrete enzymes that digest and liquefy the prey. They then suck the liquefied food into their stomach. QuickTime™ an d a Sorenson Video 3 decompre ssor are need ed to see this p icture . The second order of arachnids includes scorpions. Scorpions have a long segmented abdomen that ends in a poisonous stinger. A scorpion's pedipalps are modified into large claws for capturing and holding prey. As it curls its abdomen over trapped prey, the scorpion stings and paralyzes it, then crushes it and sucks its internal liquids. Despite their reputation, only a few species of scorpions are harmful to humans. Quic kTime™ and a TI FF (Uncompres sed) dec ompress or are needed t o s ee t his pic t ure. Mites and ticks are classified in a third order of arachinds. Unlike spiders, mites have only one body segment. Some mites use their piercing and sucking mouthparts to drain the contents of plant cells. Other mite species eat bacteria that live in animal hair follicles. Some mites even feed on the dead skin cells of humans. Millions of dust mites live in our houses and are usually harmless but can cause problems for people with allergies. Most ticks are parasites that require meals of blood before they molt. Ticks attach to their hosts with specially adapted mouthparts and their feeding process can take several days, during which they may grow to many times their original size. Ticks differ from spiders in that they have only a single fused body section. Ticks can be dangerous because they can act as hosts to parasites that cause diseases such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever. A common dog tick is easy to see because it is as large as a sesame seed. The deer tick, however, which causes Lyme disease is very small and difficult to see. References Strauss, E. & Lisowski, M. (2000). Biology: The Web of Life, Second Edition.

Shades of Treason (Anomaly #1) by Sandy Williams
Though SHADES OF TREASON is science fiction, it really felt a lot like an urban fantasy story just in a sci-fi setting. The main character, Ash, is an anomaly. Though just what an anomaly is was never explained, anomalies are stronger, faster, and in some ways smarter than other humans. All those extra abilities made Ash feel a lot like your standard supernatural urban fantasy heroine.
Review: Supervillains Anonymous (Superheroes Anonymous #2) by Lexie Dunne
This book was entertaining, but it ran out of steam somewhere around the middle. The story picks up exactly where the first one left off, to the point where I feel that SUPERVILLAINS ANONYMOUS should have just been included in the first book, Superheroes Anonymous. I would have rather read the whole story in one go and saved myself some confusion.

I'll admit to being a bit wary of a book based on a comic. In fact, I had very low expectations for HEXED: THE SISTERS OF WITCHDOWN. And while it didn't blow my mind, HEXED was still an enjoyable young adult read with some fun characters and creative mythology.

HUNTER OF HER HEART seemed like it would be a nice and quick sort of paranormal romance but I ended up just not liking any of the characters or even the plot. The writing was well done and not overly complex or down-laden with flowery descriptions truly making this book a quick read.
Release Day Review: Song of Midnight Embers (Maggie's Grove, #4) by Dana Marie Bell
I decided to review SONG OF MIDNIGHT EMBERS due to the mention of dryads and elementals in the series. I don't think I've read urban fantasy or paranormal romance involving dryads as central characters. I was fascinated by the mythology and magic of the dryads in this book.

Phillies' Draft: Day 2
The Phillies took a high school shortstop and a college second baseman last night in the first two rounds of the 2015 Draft.
They remained in the middle of the infield with their first pick today.
Here is a look at the Phillies' selections on Day 2:
Round 3: SS Luke Williams, Dana Hills (Calif.) HS
Williams (6-foot-1, 180 pounds) has committed to Cal Poly San Luis Obispo.
The right-handed hitter posted a .315 batting average in 32 games and has good speed. He set the school's career stolen bases record this year.
"I like to utilize my speed, that's a big part of my game," Williams told the Orange County Register in April. "Every time I'm on first, I like to try and swipe a bag."
Round 4: 1B Kyle Martin, South Carolina
Martin earned second-team All-America honors during his senior season with the Gamecocks. He hit .350 with 12 doubles, 2 triples, 14 home runs, 56 RBIs, a .455 on-base percentage and a .635 slugging percentage.
Martin (6-foot-1, 240 pounds) walked 39 times and struck out just 27 times.
The Angels selected Martin in the 20th round of the 2014 Draft, but he returned for his senior season.
Round 5: LHP Bailey Falter, Chino Hills (Calif.) HS
Falter is 6-foot-4, 175 pounds, and MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo said he throws in the mid-to-high 80 mph range, but scouts believe his velocity will build in time.
He has committed to UC-Santa Barbara.
Round 6: LHP Tyler Gilbert, Southern California
He went 5-2 with a 2.79 ERA as a junior with the Trojans, where he spent most of his time in the bullpen.
Gilbert allowed 68 hits, 21 earned runs, 25 walks and struck out 66 batters in 67 1/3 innings.
Round 7: RHP Luke Leftwich, Wofford College
Leftwich (6-foot-3, 210 pounds) is a junior with baseball bloodlines.
The Angels selected his father Phil in the second round of the 1990 Draft. He made 34 starts with the Angels from 1993-96. Leftwich's grandfather Tom Timmermann pitched six season for the Tigers (1969-73) and Indians (1973-74).
Leftwich went 7-2 with a 4.25 ERA in 16 appearances (14 starts) this season. He struck out 114 and walked 28 in 89 innings.
Round 8 (234th pick): OF Greg Pickett, Legend (Colo.) HS
Pickett is listed at 6-foot-4, 220 pounds. He has power from the left side of the plate.
He hit .420 this season. He has committed to Mississippi State.
Round 9 (264th pick): CF Mark Laird, Louisiana State
He has good speed, but lacks power.
Laird (6-foot-2, 173 pounds) played the corners in college, but the Phillies see him as a center fielder. He has hit .323 with nine doubles, one triple, one home run, 23 RBIs, a .379 slugging percentage and a .390 on-base percentage. He stole 23 bases in 29 attempts.
Round 10 (294th pick): 3B Josh Tobias, Florida
Tobias hit .373 with 14 doubles, five triples, five home runs, 41 RBIs, a .557 slugging percentage and a .447 on-base percentage as a senior.
He is listed at 5-foot-9, 205 pounds.
The Draft concludes tomorrow, with exclusive coverage of Rounds 11-40 on MLB.com beginning at noon ET.
Phillies Sign Correia
The Phillies filled Severino Gonzalez's spot in the rotation from outside the organization.
The team announced this afternoon it had signed right-hander Kevin Correia to a Major League contract. Correia is expected to join the team in Cincinnati.
Correia, 34, spent the first two months this season pitching for Triple-A Sacramento, which is the Giants' top affiliate. He went 0-1 with a 3.58 ERA in six starts. The Giants released Correia on May 29 after exercising an opt-out clause in his contract.
"Kevin fills a need by adding depth, durability and experience to our pitching staff," Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said in a statement. "We hope that he can give us quality innings to take some heat off the bullpen."
Correia is 76-95 with a 4.59 ERA in 353 games (216 starts) for the Giants (2003-08), Padres (2009-10), Pirates (2011-12), Twins (2013-14) and Dodgers (2014).
The Phillies optioned Gonzalez to Triple-A over the weekend. He went 1-2 with a 4.34 ERA in five starts.
Almaraz Hopes to Change Draft Fortunes
Phillies president Pat Gillick said something interesting in Spring Training about new amateur scouting director Johnny Almaraz.
He said Almaraz likes players.
"People might not understand that," Gillick said, "but sometimes you look at a player and you can talk about his minuses or you can talk about his plusses. Our new scouting director, he talks about players' plusses. He wants to concentrate on what this player can do, not on what he cannot do. So I think it's a little bit of a different approach."
The Phillies announced in October that Almaraz had replaced Marti Wolever, who had run the organization's drafts for more than a decade. Almaraz gets his first crack at it next week, when Major League Baseball holds the 2015 First-Year Player Draft.
The Phillies have the 10th overall pick.
"I believe that we all know what a baseball player is," Almaraz said today. "It's somebody who executes the fundamentals, somebody who hits behind the runner, somebody who takes pitches, who can bunt the ball to both sides of the field. Pitchers who can throw strikes, first pitch for a strike. Baseball players who know how to play the game. We're going after baseball players with ability. Sometimes when you get somebody who is extremely talented in any sport, and you try to teach them the game sometimes they cannot ever learn it."
The Phillies hope that tweak in philosophy serves them well. Since the Phillies selected Cole Hamels with the 17th overall pick in the 2002 Draft, Phillies first-round selections (including supplemental picks) have a combined -1.2 WAR, according to Baseball Reference.
That group includes outfielder Greg Golson (2004, playing in Mexico), right-hander Kyle Drabek (2006, pitching in Triple-A Charlotte), infielder Adrian Cardenas (2006, retired), left-hander Joe Savery (2007, not playing), Travis d'Arnaud (2007, Mets), Anthony Hewitt (2008, Class A Frederick), Zach Collier (2008, not playing), Jesse Biddle (2010, Double-A Reading), Larry Greene (2011, retired), Shane Watson (2012, injured), Mitch Guellar (2012, injured ), J.P. Crawford (2013, Double-A Reading) and Aaron Nola (2014, Double-A Reading).
In fact, since the Phillies selected Golson in 2004, the Phillies' five most successful draft picks have been J.A. Happ (third round in 2004, 6.8 WAR), Vance Worley (third round in 2005, 5.4 WAR), Jarred Cosart (38th round in 2008, 5.5 WAR), A.J. Griffin (34th round in 2009, 4.3 WAR) and Kyle Gibson (36th round in 2006, 3.4 WAR).
Griffin and Gibson never signed with the Phillies. They reentered the draft at a later date.
The Phillies will be looking for the best player available at No. 10, which only makes sense. While they certainly could use a hitter, they cannot afford to be picky. They have numerous holes to fill.
"I know we are going to get a good player at 10," Almaraz said.
And what would make his first draft a successful one?
"My definition of a successful draft is getting somebody in the first, second and third round who are going to impact the major league level four to five years from now or sooner," he said.
Utley's Head Back Above Mendoza Line
Chase Utley finally has his head above the Mendoza line.
It has been a long climb since his batting average dropped to .099 on May 8, which was the lowest batting average among qualified hitters through a team's first 30 games since 1914. But Utley went 3-for-4 with a home run in last night's 5-4 victory over the Reds at Citizens Bank Park to raise his average to .207.
It was the first time his batting average had hit .200 since April 14.
"Obviously the first month didn't go as planned," Utley said. "But you can't really change that. You've got to continue to move forward. The last month or so has been a little better. You just try to build on it."
Utley has hit .347 (25-for-73) with six doubles, one triple, one home run, eight RBIs and an .908 OPS in 22 games since May 8.
Perhaps Utley's luck has finally turned in his favor.
His batting average on balls in play had been .079 through May 8, which was easily the worst BABIP in baseball. But his .393 BABIP since seems to be evening things out.
"It became a little frustrating at times," Utley said. "Because you know you're putting some decent at-bats together hitting balls, maybe not perfect, but well enough where you feel like you may deserve a hit here and there. For whatever reason, they weren't really falling. You try not to change too much, but mentally it can be tough."
Utley started last night's game with a bunt single down the third-base line. The Reds had employed the defensive shift with Reds third baseman Todd Frazier essentially playing shortstop. Ryne Sandberg had been begging his hitters to drop a ball down the line to beat the shift, and Utley finally did it.
"I figured I'd try it," he said. "I think over the course of a year guys should try it. Whether it works out or not, at least it'll get the defense thinking a little bit."
Utley singled to left in the third before homering in the sixth. It was his first homer since May 1 in Miami.
"They say they all even out," Utley said. "We'll see if that happens."
Grady Sizemore Released
The Phillies announced tonight they have released outfielder Grady Sizemore.
Sizemore, 32, hit .245 with five doubles, six RBIs and a .584 OPS in 104 plate appearances this season. The Phillies designated him for assignment Friday to make room for Cody Asche on the 25-man roster.
The Phillies signed Sizemore to a one-year, $2 million contract in October, despite hitting .172 with a .580 OPS in 97 plate appearances from Aug. 6, 2014, through the end of last season.
Angels Get Outfielder, Revere Sticking Around?
For now it looks like Ben Revere is remaining with the Phillies.
ESPN.com reported this afternoon the Angels acquired outfielder Kirk Nieuwenhius from the Mets.
The Phillies and Angels had been talking about a Revere trade for some time, sources had told MLB.com. The Phillies wanted at least one Minor League player in return, but the sides could not reach an agreement.
The Angels are expected to continue looking for ways to boost their offense, so perhaps the Phillies and Angels will keep talking.
The Phillies have been trying to trade Revere because of an imminent logjam in the outfield. Cody Asche is learning to play left field in Triple-A. Right fielder Domonic Brown also is in Triple-A. Both are expected to rejoin the Phillies at some point, which means other players will have to move.
The Phillies have committed to Odubel Herrera in center field, which has made Revere movable. Outfielder Grady Sizemore also could be an odd man out. He hits left-handed like Herrera, Asche, Brown and Revere. He entered Wednesday hitting .191 (25-for-131) with no home runs, six RBIs and a .472 OPS since Aug. 8, 2014.
Nieuwenhius had been designated for assignment May 19. It only the Angels cash to acquire him.
Frenchy's Role Models
Passing this along because I liked the last part of his answer.
Amaro Says Sorry For Comments About Fans
Ruben Amaro Jr. acknowledged the firestorm he caused today in Philadelphia following comments he made about Phillies fans, saying they "don't understand the game" and "then they b—- and complain because we don't have a plan."
He apologized before today's game against the Mets at Citi Field.
"I'm a fan myself," Amaro said. "I understand the passion and the knowledge that our fans have for our game and the other major sports, all the other sports in Philly. The comments weren't meant to disparage our fans by any stretch of the imagination. I probably used my words incorrectly or poorly. I want to apologize for that."
The crux of the comments in a CSNPhilly.com story centered on some fans' desires to see the team's top prospects promoted to the big leagues in a projected 97-loss season. Amaro has said repeatedly those prospects will not be rushed to the big leagues.
"I'm as excited about seeing them in the big leagues as anybody else," Amaro said. "But there's a process they have to go through. There's a process and a plan in place. And I think that was more of the point. I understand why the fans would want (to see them) because we're not having a ton of success at the Major League level right now. But I think it's incumbent upon the organization to make sure we do it at the right time and do it with the right plan in place."
But Amaro's harsh comments resonated loudly among a frustrated fan base. The Phillies have been losing more and more since they won a franchise-record 102 games in 2011, despite remaining among the top spenders in baseball. They finished 81-81 in 2012 and 73-89 the previous two seasons.
They entered Tuesday 19-28, which is the fourth-worst record in baseball.
The organization finally initiated a rebuilding plan once Pat Gillick became team president last August, but that has not removed Amaro from the hot seat.
Gillick has publicly supported Amaro, but Amaro's contract expires at the end of this season and Gillick has said Amaro's status will not be addressed before then.
It is not a stretch to think Amaro's comments this week could come back to haunt him.
"The biggest thing that bothers me about it is how the organization is perceived – not me personally," Amaro said. "We've always been one of those organizations, at least as long as I've been in the front office, to understand the fan and understand that the fans are the people who pay our salaries and support us. Am I worried about it for me? No. I'm worried about it for the organization, because they shouldn't have to suffer because I made a bad quote."
Amaro spoke Tuesday with Gillick.
"We had a discussion about it, and he said it was unfortunate and thought it was taken out of context," Amaro said. "If you look at the breadth of the story … our job is to make sure the fans love this club for a long time, and we have to do what we can to put the team in a position for the fans to enjoy it. Sadly, that point gets lost because of my quote."
Amaro said the Phillies will continue to develop their prospects at what the organization considers the appropriate speed. Aaron Nola, who many fans are clamoring to see, has made 20 Minor League starts. That is fewer than Max Scherzer (30), Cole Hamels (36), Clayton Kershaw (44), Matt Harvey (46), Sonny Gray (53), Shelby Miller (78) and other frontline starters made before their big league promotions.
"We have to build these guys in a way that prepares them to be Major Leaguers," Amaro said. "We have a process and a plan in place to make sure that we protect them and develop them in the right way so when they get here to the big leagues … one, they're physically protected. Two, they're mentally prepared to be in the big leagues. Three, we develop them at the right pace, so that they can be the best players they can be when they get here."
That part of the message makes sense, but can fans get past the other part?
"We're fan-driven," Amaro said. "This is an entertainment business, and we need the support of our fans, and we've gotten tremendous support. I apologize for the context or the words that I used. I think the thing that bothers me the most about this stuff that happened today and the quotes I made is that I don't want to detract from the fact that there are some really positive things happening here in a way that the fans can focus on those. Hopefully they can focus on the progress as opposed to my misguided quotes."
Phillies Don't Dig Nats' Music, Promise Payback
The U.S. military bombarded Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega with heavy metal music to force him from his compound and surrender in 1989. Britney Spears' music has blared from merchant ships to scare away pirates off the horn of Africa.
The Nationals have chosen "Somewhere Out There" by Linda Rondstadt and James Ingram to annoy their enemies.
They have been playing pop ballads and other soft and sappy music during opposing teams' batting practices this season. There is no shortage of schmaltzy music, so the playlist has varied every day. But the past couple days the Phillies have been fortunate (or unfortunate) to hear Patrick Swayze's "She's Like the Wind," Starland Vocal Band's "Afternoon Delight," Anne Murray's "You Needed Me," Dan Hill's "Can't We Try," and Spandau Ballet's "True."
"We'll take care of that," Ryne Sandberg said before today's game against the Nationals at Nationals Park. "We're going with the silent treatment at our place.
"It's bush league. And irrelevant. What's the point?"
Some of the Phillies are amused at the sappy tunes. Some could not care less. Others want mercy.
"I don't think there's any malice behind it," Justin De Fratus said. "I think it's funny. They played that Feivel Goes West song yesterday. If anything it's a change of pace from some of the stuff we hear every day. I've got to sit there and listen to Drake every day. And it's not about Drake. It's every day I'm hearing top 40."
"I mean, come on," Jeff Francoeur said. "If you did it one time it's funny. But we come here so many times."
The Phillies actually had a bigger beef than the music. They feel they get on the field for batting practice late at Nationals Park compared to other ballparks, giving them less time to get ready between BP and first pitch. But according to the Phillies' and Nationals' respective media guides, batting practice starts only five minutes later for opposing teams at Nationals Park than at Citizens Bank Park.
"It's very inconvenient," Sandberg said. "That will be another adjustment. That seed was planted about six weeks ago."
Nevertheless, the yacht rock continues.
"I didn't even notice it," Nationals outfielder Jayson Werth said with a hint of a smile. "But it's nice soothing music they've got going on here. It's nice for the fans at the ballpark before the game. Yeah, maybe get a beer, a pretzel, enjoy BP."
Playing Howard and Utley Could Help Phillies' Rebuild
This is why the Phillies didn't bench or release Ryan Howard just two weeks into the season.
Remember? That's what many fans wanted. Howard was hitting .175 (7-for-40) with three doubles, two RBIs, two walks, 15 strikeouts and a .464 OPS though April 19. They wanted Darin Ruf. They wanted Maikel Franco. They wanted Chase Utley.
They wanted anybody other than Howard.
But Howard is hitting .292 (28-for-96) with five doubles, one triple, eight home runs, 18 RBIs and a .961 OPS in 27 games since April 19. Only four players have hit more home runs than Howard since he hit his first homer of the season April 21: Bryce Harper (11), Giancarlo Stanton (10), Ryan Braun (nine), and Todd Frazier (nine). Howard's OPS is 19th out of 191 qualified hitters in baseball in that span.
If he maintains the pace he has had since April 21 he will finish the season with 35 home runs.
Think a contending team could use somebody like that?
The Phillies had nothing to lose by continuing to play Howard, just like they have nothing to lose continuing to play Utley, despite his struggles. If Howard maintains his pace and if Utley picks up offensively — he has hit well over the past week — the Phillies might be able to trade one or both of them before July 31.
If they don't, they didn't lose anything.
Remember, this season is about the future. Benching or releasing the greatest first baseman and second baseman in franchise history based on a couple bad weeks (Howard) or six bad weeks (Utley) is short sighted. There is plenty of time to see Cesar Hernandez and Ruf.
But what about Utley's $15 million club option that vests if he reaches 500 plate appearances? Relax. Utley is on pace for 555 plate appearances, but even if the Phillies play him at his current pace and he is hitting .150 through July 31, the Phillies could make up the difference the final two months of the season.
So consider the big picture with Howard and Utley. Sticking with them through the trade deadline is the best plan for the future.
