Jenkins

The Twins’ top prospect has been out since the beginning of May with a Grade 2 AC joint sprain in his left shoulder. The Twins are hoping that he can progress to live batting practice this week and then begin a rehab assignment next week. He would then likely return to games at Triple-A St. Paul, where he had a .250/.389/.386 slash line with two homers and five steals in 24 games.

Jenkins is going to miss at least a couple weeks, if not longer, after suffering a significant shoulder injury during a full-speed collision with the outfield wall at Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday. The 21-year-old, who was the fifth-overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft, is one of the top prospects in the fantasy landscape and was likely to reach the majors this summer. This latest development throws a serious wrench into that timeline.

Jenkins, the Twins’ top prospect, entered the day hitting .250/.389/.386 with two homers and five steals in 24 games.

The 21-year-old now has three steals on the season, which is nice to see since he was battling a hamstring issue at the end of March. He’s slashing just .242/.405/.273, but his 6/8 K/BB ratio shows a clear understanding of the strike zone. He just hasn’t been able to drive the pitches when he does get good ones to hit. That should come in time, and he still has a good chance to be up with Minnesota this summer.

Jenkins has been dealing with a hamstring injury, and the 21-year-old will play seven innings for the next week or so as he builds his strength back up according to Dan Hayes of The Athletic. Jenkins is among the best prospects in baseball and likely will make his MLB debut this summer.

Jenkins suffered a hamstring injury and wasn’t playing anyway, so off to minor league camp he heads. The 2023 first-rounder has a good chance of being a fantasy force at some point, but will likely head to St. Paul for more seasoning in the minors before he’s ready to debut.

Jenkins picked up the strain while trying to beat out a double play, and an MRI revealed the strain. The fifth pick of the 2023 draft, Jenkins has a chance to help Minnesota at some point in 2026 assuming good health, and remains one of the best fantasy prospects in the sport.

Jenkins — who was selected fifth overall in the 2023 MLB Draft — launched a majestic 414-foot moonshot to right-center field for his first round-tripper since being promoted to Triple-A back on August 24. The 20-year-old’s combination of size and athleticism makes him one of the most exciting prospects in the fantasy landscape heading into next season. He’s batted .305 with nine homers and 14 steals in 73 games this season across four minor league levels.

The 20-year-old outfielder was awfully impressive in 52 games at Double-A Wichita, slashing .309/.426/.487 with seven homers, 24 RBI and 11 stolen bases in 235 plate appearances. He’s now just one step away from debuting with the Twins and could conceivably get a cup of coffee with the big league club at some point in September.

Jenkins missed time at the outset of the year due to an ankle injury, but he’s showed why he’s one of the most intriguing talents in the dynasty landscape in recent weeks, notching his fifth multi-hit performance in just eight games since the outset of August. The 6-foot-3 outfielder, who is hitting .312 (49-for-157) with six homers and nine steals in 42 games for Double-A Wichita, is an impressive athlete and is really starting to put it all together in the upper minors after injuries limited him to just 108 games combined over the previous two seasons after being selected fifth overall in the 2023 MLB Draft. He’ll finish the year as a top-10 dynasty prospect.
