The best thing Tyler Robertson has going for him (other than being left handed) is that he's absolutely monstrous looking.

 

Yeah, but by the time he gets to the majors he's facing batters who have seen a ton of guys who look like him and topped out at AAA.

He could play RF tomorrow and CF on Saturday, if Hicks is still struggling.

 

 

Yea I am less concerned with Hicks for some reason. I guess I kind of expected him to struggle at first.

Great post, Rookie!

Amen. Clutch pitching there.

He's an old friend.

And nice, confident use of the bullpen by Gardy. Nothing out of the ordinary. But he's good at telling his players "be ready for anything, but here's how I see your role." Not taking out Roenicke, and getting the clutch strikeout that set up the rest of the success, was key.

I prefer:

 

I always thought Carroll looked a little more like Dinklage....

Game of Thrones was just renewed, so if Carroll retires next year, maybe he can begin a new career.

Half-man is accurate.

Cannot wait to watch season 1 again, and then to watch season 2 for the first time.....depends on the weather this weekend....

Nice 11 pitch walk Morneau worked.

Agreed. And Doumit came through. An insurance run or two would be great now.

Calling it now. This is Parm's first hit.

Rocket by Parmalee, assist to Fielder.

Way not too **** up, Parmball.

Go me! Go Twins! Wouldn't it be great to get a series win to open the year?

Pretty surprised no pinch hitter here for Florimon.

Pedro...do not swing.

This game is going really well, and it is thrilling that Parmelee broke out with a clutch hit.

Bloop 2-run double. You can't stop Pedro Florimon, you can only hope to contain him.

I like it. Two run lead, you don't have to send the guy a message that he'll be pinch-hit for every time this season. Let him go up there.

Pedro Florimon, run producer.

The way this inning is trending.....I predict 3-run jack by Hicks.

Florimon!!! This game just gets better.

Attaboy Hicksie.

Hicks!!

And Hicks is on base with a two-run single!!!
