The Minnesota Twins hired Brian Reith as pitching coach after moving on from Pete Maki and assistant pitching coach Luis Ramirez, seeking new voices following a season in which the staff posted a 4.56 ERA. Reith spent the past five seasons coaching the Tampa Bay Rays’ Triple-A Durham Bulls, after working his way through the Rays’ minor-league system; the Twins will look to draw on his experience developing pitchers. He previously pitched in parts of three major-league seasons with the Cincinnati Reds. The Twins also promoted Ben Myers, previously a trainer with Triple-A St. Paul, to assistant athletic trainer, replacing Jason Kirkman.
