Twins make free agent splash by landing Josh Donaldson

UNDATED (AP) – Free agent Josh Donaldson has found a landing spot.

A person familiar with the deal says the Minnesota Twins have worked out a four-year, $92 million contract with the third baseman and 2015 American League MVP.

The 34-year-old Donaldson returned after an injury-spoiled 2018 to bat .259 with 37 homers, 94 RBIs and a .900 OPS for the Atlanta Braves last season.

The deal likely means a position change for third baseman Miguel Sano, who just finalized his three-year, $30 million contract with Minnesota on Tuesday.

Sano has seen action at first base and could replace the departed CJ Cron at the position.
