Classic-bound Rosario expected to be starter in LF

Molitor said it's part of his plan to get Rosario ready for the Classic, but he also wants to see what he has in Rosario, whom he expects to be his Opening Day left fielder.

"I think that's a fairly good assumption," Molitor said of Rosario being the starter in left. "He hasn't done anything to change how I'm proceeding at the start of the season."

Rosario, though, is expected to see time in center and right with Puerto Rico, and the Twins want him to be able to handle center, as Robbie Grossman remains the top candidate to be the club's fourth outfielder, but can only handle the corner spots.
