Gene Glynn has been promoted from manager of Class AAA Rochester to third-base coach with the Twins.
Glynn, 58, is from Waseca, Minn., and has been the Rochester manager for the last three seasons. He was one of three finalists for the Twins managing job.
Doug Mientkiewicz, who has been the manager of the Twins' Class A team at Fort Myers, would be a candidate for promotion to Rochester.
Glynn is the second coach to be named to new manager Paul Molitor's staff. The team announced last week that Tom Brunansky would return for a second season as hitting coach.
The Twins also hired an assistant hitting coach, Rudy Hernandez.
