Twins pitcher Carl Pavano will decide whether or not to accept arbitration by midnight tonight, according to his agent Tom O'Connell.
First reported by MLBDD (via Twitter), and confirmed by Ken Rosenthal.
The Twins remain interested in re-signing Pavano, who was 5-4, with a 4.64 ERA in 12 starts for Minnesota after being acquired from Cleveland in an August waiver-wire deal.
If he opts for free agency, the Twins are expected to contact Jarrod Washburn and Randy Wolf.
