Report: Outfielder Josh Willingham Agrees to Multiyear Deal With Twins

One potential option to fill the void in right field for the Red Sox has been taken off the market.

ESPN’s Jerry Crasnick is reporting that Josh Willingham has signed a multi-year contract with the Minnesota Twins pending a physical.

Willingham, who some saw as a potential replacement for J.D. Drew in right field for the Red Sox, is coming off a season in which he hit .246 with career highs of 29 home runs and 98 RBIs in 2011. 

The 32-year-old owns a lifetime .262 average to go along with an .836 OPS.
