Terry Ryan is not happy with the position the Twins are currently in.
"Usually the teams with talent take off in August and September," Ryan said. "Teams not in the mix ultimately make trades and bring in prospects. I don't think it'll last long. Detroit is talented. We're in a position I don't want to be in. We're going in the wrong direction. We have to turn that around. We'll get a look at youth with (Josh) Willingham out. You'll see a lot more of (Chris) Parmelee, (Oswaldo) Arcia, and (Aaron) Hicks. Parmelee will get a chance to play with Willingham out. Arcia has done a nice job. We're certainly evaluating everyday.
"Everything else over here is in decent shape, believe it or not. Our minor league system is good -- we have prospects. We have all of our draft picks signed outside of one guy. The international world is starting to take shape. We wrapped up guys today, and we've got several guys we have at least a hold on."
Minnesota entered Saturday 36-47, 10 games out of first place in the American League Central.
