The Twins are expected to call up their second-ranked prospect, shortstop Brooks Lee, a source told MLB.com’s Jonathan Mayo on Wednesday. The team has not confirmed the news.
Lee is ranked 13th overall on MLB Pipeline’s Top 100 list and was a first-round Draft pick by the Twins in 2022. The move to bring him up comes in the wake of Royce Lewis suffering another injury that will likely require a stint on the injured list.
A switch-hitting shortstop, Lee moved rapidly through the Minors, starting his first full season in Double-A before finishing it with Triple-A St. Paul. He is known for making hard contact from both sides of the plate, though he showed more pop from the left side in 2023. He has seen some time at third base and second base in the Minors, so he can provide the Twins with multiple options in the infield.
