KANSAS CITY -- The Twins extended their player-development contract with Triple-A Rochester through the 2018 season, both clubs announced on Friday.
After Terry Ryan was dismissed as general manager by the Twins on July 18, Rochester wanted to make sure the organization would have the right leadership in place to continue their partnership. And while the Twins haven't settled on a new GM, Rochester was convinced by Twins management that keeping their Triple-A team in Rochester was one of the organization's top priorities.
"It's been a tremendous partnership that we've had with Rochester," Twins interim general manager Rob Antony said.
