ESPN's Jerry Crasnick reports that the Twins and Josh Willingham have agreed to a contract, pending a physical.
We're still awaiting details on the contract, though Crasnick hears that it's a multi-year deal. Willingham, who turns 33 in February, batted .246/.332/.477 with 29 home runs, 98 RBI and an .810 OPS in 136 games this past season. Under the terms of the new CBA agreement, the Twins will not need to surrender a draft pick in order to sign him. His addition should create a domino effect among the remaining high-profile free agent outfielders.
