The Minnesota Twins have fired manager Paul Molitor after four seasons, according to USA Today's Bob Nightengale.
Molitor was hired by the Twins in November 2014 after Ron Gardenhire was fired. The Hall of Famer had a successful first season with the team, posting an 83-79 record and keeping them in playoff contention until the final weekend of the year.
For his efforts in 2015, Molitor finished third in American League Manager of the Year voting. He took home the trophy last season after leading the team to an 85-77 record and trip to the American League Wild Card Game.
