MINNEAPOLIS — On Wednesday, the Minnesota twins, Eddie Rosario, refused to offer a 2021 contract to their permanent left-handed paramedic for six seasons.
The twins also decided not to participate in the tender for the release of Matt Weisler until after the MLB deadline. In the course of the year, they concluded contracts with five eligible players: Right-handed Jose Berrios ($500,000 drawing bonus and $5.6 million salary), midfielder Byron Baxton ($5,125,000), liberator Tyler Duffy ($2.2 million), receiver Mitch Garver ($1,875,000) and liberator Caleb Tjelbar ($650,000).
This week Rosario has given permission to deviate from the rules, which is another sign of economic uncertainty in the sector.
We appreciate everything Eddie’s done so far. He has played an important role in this team in recent years. So these are always difficult decisions. But he’s a professional, said baseball president Derek Falvie.
Although Rosario and Wiesler were the only players on the list of 40 who did not offer new contracts, Falvi said the team would remain open to negotiate with them as free agents.
