Jason Repko: The next Lew Ford?

Let’s see…
– Career minor leaguer befor becoming a more regular fixture as a fourth outfielder in the Twins lineup.
– Successful in his first season in that role.
– Providing a “spark”

Yep, those are all Lew Fordian. He hasn’t burned himself with an iron though. Let’s push further.
– “Gritty”
– Loved by Ron Gardenhire
– Should probably never be expected to produce like this ever again.

Let’s just hope that we don’t keep him in the lineup for the next 3 years and watch him take at bats from an up and coming star like Ben Revere or Aaron Hicks. But yay, Repko, I like him this season.
