Key points
- Jonas Lovin promoted from minor league coordinator to assistant pitching coach
- Lovin joins Brian Reith and returning bullpen coach LaTroy Hawkins
- Minnesota restructured its coaching staff following the departures of Pete Maki and Luis Ramirez
The Minnesota Twins have promoted Jonas Lovin to the big-league coaching staff as an assistant pitching coach, general manager Jeremy Zoll announced. Lovin joins the staff to work alongside new pitching coach Brian Reith, filling the void left following the departures of former pitching coach Pete Maki and assistant Luis Ramirez at the conclusion of last season. Bullpen coach LaTroy Hawkins is set to return.
Lovin spent the last three campaigns working within the organization's minor league development setup. After transitioning from the collegiate level to professional baseball in 2023, he spent two seasons as pitching coach for High-A Cedar Rapids before moving to Triple-A in 2025 and later serving as a minor league assistant pitching coordinator.
General manager Jeremy Zoll praised Lovin's contributions to the organization's young arms in statements to reporters, noting his strong rapport with prospects. The newly formed coaching trio will aim to stabilize a pitching group that saw encouraging signs from arms like Taj Bradley and Dean Kremer, alongside health-dependent prospects such as Mick Abel and Pablo Lopez.
What to watch next: Monitor how the restructured coaching staff integrates young arms into the pitching rotation heading into spring training.
