Robert Delaney (born September 8, 1984) is an American professional baseballpitcher who is a free agent. He has pitched for the Minnesota Twins and the Tampa Bay Rays at the major-league level. He pitches right-handed and bats left-handed.
Rob Delaney was promoted to the Twins' Double A affiliate, the New Britain Rock Cats following the All-Star game. With the Rock Cats, his record improved to 2-1, and his ERA lowered to 1.05 while pitching more innings (34.1 versus 31.2 in the first half of the season).
Delaney first came to the attention of the public via his Twitter account which he created in February 2009. As of December 2015, Delaney had 1.22 million followers. While many other comics were initially hesitant to share their material on social media, Delaney is considered one of the first comedians to fully use social media to his advantage by sharing jokes on Twitter. Delaney credits comedy writer and director Graham Linehan with his rise in popularity on Twitter and in the comedy community after Linehan began responding to Delaney's tweets.
In 2010, Paste magazine named Delaney one of the ten funniest people on Twitter. In May 2012, he became the first comedian to win the 'Funniest Person on Twitter Award' at The Comedy Awards hosted by Comedy Central.
