14. GLEN PERKINS, lhp, Swing of the Quad Cities (Twins) Age: 21 Ht: 6-1 Wt: 190 B-T: L-L Drafted/Signed: Twins '04 (1) W L ERA G SV IP H HR BB SO AVG 2 1 1.30 9 0 48.1 33 2 12 49 .192 Of the three 2004 first-round college pitchers who saw time in the MWL, Perkins was the only one to qualify for the list. Thomas Diamond (Rangers) has an explosive arm and would have cracked the Top 10 if he had enough innings, while Chris Lambert (Cardinals) wasn't as impressive. Perkins can't match Diamond's mid-90s fastball, but he is a lefthander with three average-to-plus pitches. He throws an 88-92 mph fastball, a curveball and a changeup. Area scouts who saw him this spring said Perkins has better stuff than Denny Neagle, another University of Minnesota southpaw, had at the same point of his career. Perkins also has an excellent feel for pitching. He throws strikes, changes speeds and works both sides of the plate with ease. --
