Minnesota Twins Senior Vice President and General Manager Thad Levine has left the organization. He had been with the team since the 2017 season.
At press time, it is not clear what Levine is going to do next. If he wants to get back involved in baseball, it is likely this off-season that he will land on his feet with another franchise.
“After eight seasons of significant contributions and leadership, Thad Levine will depart the Minnesota Twins organization to pursue new challenges and opportunities, both inside and outside of baseball,” the team said in a statement.

Then, during the 2018 season, the Twins went 78-84 with Molitor.
As the Twins manager, Baldell is 457-413 since the 2019 season.
