Espada Out of Twins’ Running
According to Jon Heyman of Fancred, Astros bench coach Joe Espada is “believed out” in the race for the managerial position of the Minnesota Twins. Espada has long been connected to the Jays, and this could be a big detail in deciding where he wants to go.
Additionally, Espada has been connected to the Angels and Rangers. He interviewed for both jobs earlier last week. If true, Espada could quickly move to be the favourite for the Jays, though there is a clearly a demand for his services.
