Minnesota Twins: Kennys Vargas set to join Chiba Lotte Marines in Japan

The Minnesota Twins have watched, coached, and hoped for Kennys Vargas to develop into a player that they could regularly plug into their starting lineup. There has always been fear from fans of the Twins in any way dropping him off of the roster and Vargas emerging as Big Papi Jr. with another club. Tuesday word began to surface that the day has arrived in which Vargas will be joining another club, it will just be in Japan.

After being released from the Rochester Red Wings on November 2nd, Vargas has signed to play with Chiba Lotte Marines.
