Twins' Mark Kolozsvary: Signs MiLB deal
Minnesota signed Kolozsvary to a minor-league contract Wednesday, Darren Wolfson of Channel 5 Saint Paul reports.
Kolozsvary declined his outright assignment to Triple-A Norfolk last week, and the 27-year-old backstop will instead head to Triple-A St. Paul to provide organizational depth behind the plate for Minnesota. The Twins would need to add him to the 40-man roster if they deem him worthy of a promotion.
