"I'm happy for the opportunity here," said Arcia, through the team translator. "I'm happy to wear a new jersey today -- and have a new shot at helping the team win. I'm going to come here every day to play hard. Have a good at-bat every time I'm up there."
Arcia's best season with the Twins came in 2014, when he hit .231 with 20 home runs and 57 RBIs. He was hitting .214 with four home runs and 12 RBIs for the Twins this season.
"[The 2014 season] was a good year for me," Arcia said.
