Coolant runs through the TB.

I wouldn't drain the coolant, but you will have some dribble out. Just put some rags under that area and then just make sure your reservoir has the correct amount of coolant. With how little you use, it'll self bleed. At least it has in all of my experiences with removing the TB or the upper intake.
