Twins infielder Mickey Gasper is OK after leaving Sunday's spring training game with a severe cut on his ankle that required six stitches, according to the team's beat reporters. He's also been informed that he has made Minnesota's Opening Day roster, which marks the first time the 29-year-old will begin a season at the MLB level.

Once upon a time, a legend among legends lived in Twins territory. A man who transcended time and space and popularity. A man for whom memes and merchandise were manufactured. Fans referred to that man as “La Tortuga.” The scorecard referred to him as Willians Astudillo .

Keirsey, Mickey Gasper and Edouard Julien learned they’d grabbed the final three spots on the team’s 26-man roster. Tuesday, the trio will head to St. Louis, where the Twins open the season Thursday. Martin was optioned to Triple-A St. Paul.
