According to reports this morning, right-handed pitcher Rickey Nolasco has reached a agreement with the Minnesota Twins for four years.

The contract is for $ 49 million, with a club option for 2018.

Nolasco now becomes the Twins staff 'Ace'. Minnesota had the worst starters in the majors last year with a staff ERA of 5.26.
