RotoWire's Preseason Outlooks

2013

Subscribe now to see our 2013 outlook.

2012

Parmelee may have put himself into position to win a major league job in spring training after his strong September (.355 with five home runs and a 1.035 OPS). He hit much better in Minnesota than in the minors (just a .801 OPS at Double-A in 2011), but he has the power and plate discipline to think it may not be a total fluke. If Justin Morneau's concussion woes continue to be a problem, Parmelee could even be in the mix for a starting job at first base or DH this spring.

2011

Parmelee, the Twins' 2006 first-round draft pick, entered last season as a disappointment and was demoted to Low-A. However, he bounced back with a strong season. He was promoted to Double-A (where he hit .275/.341/.389 with six home runs in 411 at-bats) and then had a strong showing in the Arizona Fall League. It looks like his career has finally turned the corner as he increased his contact rate significantly and had almost as many walks as strikeouts (65:41 K:BB ratio at Double-A). A strong first half at Double-A could put him in the mix for a September callup in 2011.

2010

Parmelee hasn't lived up to his billing as the Twins' 2006 first-round draft pick, but he showed enough skills last season to think he could reach the majors. Parmelee has good power (13 home runs) and a strong eye at the plate. However, he needs to make better contact (109 strikeouts in 422 at-bats) if he's going to continue to advance.

2008

Parmelee, the Twins' first pick in the 2006 draft, struggled at Low-A by hitting .239/.313/.414 but showed good power with 15 home runs and drew walks at a good rate. He also was a better fielder than expected in the outfield, which could help his development since he may not be limited to just first base. So while 2007 was disappointing, he'll be just 20 years old next season.

2007

Parmelee, the Twins first pick in the 2006 draft, hit .227/.370/.273 in 11 games for low-A Beloit as an 18-year-old after tearing up rookie ball with a .279/.369/.532 line. He showed strong command of the strike zone and lots of power potential. A strong full season at Beloit could have him on the fast track to the majors.
