The Twins just can’t escape the Yankees in the playoffs, even when New York doesn’t make the postseason.
Yankees broadcaster Michael Kay as well as current Timberwolves co-owner and Yankee legend Alex Rodriguez look set to be the ESPN announcing crew for the Twins playoff series next week.

Gonzalez will be the reporter on Kay and A-Rod’s announcing crew.

The Twins most likely won’t know their playoff opponent until the final day with the Wild Card spots still up in the air in the American League.
