Twins send Van Mil to Angels; complete Fuentes trade

The Minnesota Twins sent prospect pitcher Loek Van Mil to the Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday to finalize the trade for reliever Brian Fuentes.

Van Mil, 25, had been designated for assignment and dropped from the 40-man roster to make room for Fuentes.

The trade agreement required the Twins to send a mid-level prospect or cash by Oct. 15. Van Mil fits the description as a mid-level prospect who has been on the rise, but slowed down by injury.
