Hi Everybody http://www.redsfanproshop.com/authentic-cliff-pennington-jersey , It’s me, TJ, with some big news: I was able to get ahold of (not really) everyone’s favorite jolly elf. He was kind enough to provide us with some advice for spending the holiday with your family, so enjoy!Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays on behalf of all of us here at Twinkie Town!You gotta start the day out right. Couple slices of pie and a PBR before you head over to the folks will have you in a good mood.Get someone to dress up as Santa. I dunno why, but people are always asking me to dress up as Santa this time of year. The kids love it though.Don’t draw too much attention to yourself. Like I always told Nicky Punto, you gotta stay low, they can’t get ya when you’re low.Give everyone a nickname. Nothing breaks up tension and brings your team together like everyone having a nickname. Even if you just have to tell that uncle from up north that he’s a hoser.Start a good snowball fight. Don’t worry about that little pop you felt in your elbow. Rub some dirt on it and keep throwing. Brad Radke pitched through worse.Bring one of those little portable TV’s with you. Everyone else is probably going to want to watch some boring Hallmark Christmas movie. This way you can find yourself a little corner with an outlet and watch a Die Hard marathon. Order Little Caesars for everyone. Look Anthony DeSclafani Jersey , turkey and stuffing is great and all, but who wants to wait. Get yourself a bunch of $5 hot’n’ready pizzas. If enough people do it, they might even let me sign another catcher. Gotta have at least three catchers ya know.Just skip the whole thing and go ice fishing. They’ve got some pretty little Lakes out here around Detroit, I’ll just go out for a whole day, drop a line in the water, and slam a rack of PBR. Sounds way better than spending like eleven hours with the family, doesn’t it. Twins acquire another outfielder and cold hard cash in return"WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections Twinkie Town Farm ReportSatire Adam Duvall Jersey , Irreverence, & Other HumorGame RecapsNewsSpring TrainingSpring TrainingMichael Reed traded to Giants; Rosales and Collins opt outNew,4commentsTwins acquire another outfielder and cold hard cash in returnEDTShareTweetShareShareMichael Reed traded to Giants; Rosales and Collins opt outFarewell, one of the Reeds.Butch Dill-USA TODAY SportsLaVelle E Neal III of the Star Tribune broke news about a trade that the Minnesota Twins and San Francisco Giants completed today: OF Michael Reed has been sent to the Giants for OF John Andreoli and cash. Reed leaves the Twins with a spring stat line of .278/.300/.744 in 8 games with a homer and 4 RBI. He's expected to make the big-league team with the Giants when breaking camp.The Twins get 29-year-old Andreoli in return, who's posted a .250/.455/.250 line with 2 RBI in 9 Cactus League games. He'll most likely serve as organizational depth for the Twins while the trade paves the way for Jake Cave to make the 25-man roster as the fourth outfielder after camp. The trade also opens up a spot on the 40-man roster spot, signalling a possible non-roster invitee being added in the coming days. Addison Reed, Matt Magill Michael Lorenzen Jersey , and Gabriel Moya are all expected to start the regular season on the injured list, so a non-roster bullpen arm is the most likely to join the 40-man roster soon.In other camp news, Tim Collins and Adam Rosales have both exercised their opt-outs last night and now hit the free agent market and will look to larch on with another team. Collins pitched in 7 games this spring, posting a 4.91 ERA in 7.1 innings, allowing 4 homers and notching 12 strikeouts while Rosales hit 4 dingers and 9 RBI on the way to a .278/.350/.694 line in 16 games.
