KMSP-TV in Minnesota reports that the Twins have agreed to long-term contract extensions with both Justin Morneau and Michael Cuddyer.

 

Terms of the deals have not been disclosed, but a press conference has been scheduled for Friday afternoon. Morneau avoided arbitration last week by signing a one-year, $7.4 million contract and previously said that extension talks had been limited. Cuddyer and the Twins were $1.5 million apart on their arbitration submissions, with Cuddyer requesting $6.2 million.
