I'd be OK if TK was the Manager in 2014.

You could not drive over that comment without damage to your tires.

Auto Correct got me... "Annoying" was the intended word.

That Comment would be even worse to drive over!

Hope this helps ya out

That comment would be enjoying to drive over!

That comment reminded me that Oakland should be destroyed.

I just asked Charles Nelson Reilly his opinion on Ashbury's victory last night: "9. Lipstick"

From "The Clovers" Lipstick #9

And that's why... It would be a historical broadcast... The First baseball broadcast with a dead guy doing color. A truly big moment for baseball.

Do you have permission from Chief to use that?

I wish I knew how to spell his trademark laugh or noise he makes.

I can't go along with that... I look forward to TK on the broadcast. I am serious but I would also look forward to Charles Nelson Reilly doing the broadcast as well.

Jimi Hendrix was a very average Right Handed Guitarist... They moved him to 2nd base and... Well... The rest is history!!!

Dozier... I like him... Let's keep him.

GLORM!!! Are you getting down with your bad self? Now You Type -- I'll be up with my bad self all night if my wife doesn't find out!!!

We here at Twins Daily hope you still have some money left.

News from around the league... According to lineups posted on Rotoworld... Carlos Pena is batting leadoff for the Astro's. My Question... How messed up is your roster if you have to bat Carlos Pena leadoff?

I agree... I was really concerned last year when Parmelee was called up to ride the pine and not play. This went on for a long stretch of time. If you can't play a guy... Send him down and call up someone who you can play. The thing I notice with Parmelee this year has been his struggles with high fastballs. He is a very good low ball hitter. His Power comes from balls down in the zone. Pitchers are aware of this and they will keep throwing the ball up until he can lay off it or hit it.

With all due respect... I don't think Stephen Drew belongs on a list of players worth signing. If you compare Pedro Florimon offensive stats thus far with Stephen Drew offensively in 2013... Then throw in salary, age, defense and what Stephen Drew has done in 2012 and 2011. I'm going with Florimon every time. I think the Red Sox would be better off with Iglasias, Bogaarts or even the DFA'd and now with the Royals Ciriaco. Of course... I'm not a Stephen Drew fan... So I recognize that I may be biased.

Indians: SP Corey Kluber CF Bourn SS Cabrera 2B Kipnis 1B Swisher LF Brantley C Santana DH Giambi 1B Reynolds 3B Chisenhall Twins: SP Kevin Correia 2B Dozier 3B Plouffe C Mauer 1B Morneau RF Doumit DH Colabello CF Hicks LF Thomas SS Florimon Things to think about Today: 1. Think about -- The 3 Game winning streak... When you reach 3 in a row... It's a winning streak! Come Ride the Train... Hey Ride It. 2. Think about -- We out played them yesterday... We watched the well paid Swisher drop a ball at first... We watched the elite SS Asdrubal Cabrera fail to move one foot to his right and one foot forward to retire a hitter. We watched Drew Stubbs lay up on a ball he could have reached. We didn't do that stuff and we won. 3. Think about -- Pedro Florimon... Not only did he make 3 real nice defensive plays yesterday... He's also 4 for 8 at the plate in his last 3 games. 4. Think about -- Chris Colabello... 29 year old Rookie... 20 Major League at bats... 2 singles for .100 Average... If Colabello can go 4 for 4 at the plate today. His career average will jump up to .250. If hits 4 home runs today while going 4 for 4 at the plate. His Career OPS and Slugging percentage will jump up significantly as well. After all of that Colabello stats breaking down... I sure hope he is in the lineup. 5. Think about -- The Odds of the Twins reaching the playoffs... When you do... you have to wonder why "Fat Chance" and "Slim Chance" mean the same thing.

Most of us are waiting for the young players to arrive and save us. Yet we have a group with the mindset that feels that 25 year old 500 MLB AB Chris Parmelee has been given every chance and is ready to toss aside Chris Parmelee. Personally... In my opinion... If you feel that way about Parmelee... I wonder if you will have the patience for what is coming down the road when these young guys show up to actually save us. Parmelee is 25 years old... Same age as Domonic Brown. I'm really not trying to compare the two of them. I wouldn't do that because every ball player is different. Brown was considered a bigger prospect at one time. Brown made his debut in the majors a year younger. Different skill sets. So I'm not comparing them. But I will compare them this way. Phillies Fans were also thinking that it was time to toss a side Domonic Brown. When players stop swinging at crap... They improve... Some players get it quicker and some players get it later and some never get it at all. None of us... Including the Twins Front Office and Coaches and including Chris Parmelee himself know when or if he will figure it out. If anyone thinks that they know what Parmelee will become at this point in his career. I hold up the example of Domonic Brown!!! If you have the Power to hit one out of the park (Parmelee Does) you also have the power to hit a double in the gap or a single through the infield. If you have that skill... All you have to do is stop swinging at crap. I think the Twins are gonna patiently wait for him to stop doing that. Young players do this... Should the Jays toss aside Brett Lawrie. Should the Royals give up on Moustakas... Should the White Sox be tossing aside Viciedo... Should the Mariners toss aside Michael Saunders or how about Dustin Ackley. Pedro Alverez looked like a complete mess in 2011 after 500 at bats. The Pirates are probably happy right now that they didn't over react and give up on a young struggling player like we did with Carlos Gomez. I strongly believe that one of the goals for the rest of the year... Is help Parmelee hone his abilities to be ready for 2014 and beyond... Or at least a role of backup in the future.
