  • Twins' Brooks Lee: Promoted to Triple-A

    Lee was promoted Thursday to Triple-A St. Paul. The top-ranking prospect in the Twins' minor-league system, Lee earned the level jump after slashing .292/.365/.476 with 11 home runs, 31 doubles, 61 RBI, six stolen bases and 63 runs scored in 87 games this summer at Double-A Wichita. The fast-rising 22-year-old shortstop was the eighth overall selection in the 2022 MLB Draft out of Cal Poly.

  • Twins' Brooks Lee: Heating up at Double-A

    Lee went 3-for-4 with a home run Wednesday for Double-A Wichita. He's hitting .344 with six home runs and a 1.047 OPS in 23 games since June 15. Lee is hitting .289 with a .853 OPS and 10 home runs overall for Wichita. He had a slightly underwhelming start to the season (.269 with four home runs and a .772 OPS through June 6) for a player who was drafted eighth overall in 2022, but he's improved as the summer has heated up.

  • Twins' Brooks Lee: Can't hold hot start at Double-A

    Lee is hitting .269 with four home runs and a .772 OPS at Double-A Wichita. Lee began the season hot by hitting .323 with a .894 OPS through his first 23 games but has cooled by hitting .200 with a .617 OPS in his last 24 games. There's still plenty to like about his performance with good walk rates (10.3 percent) and strikeout rates (16.2 percent), but he hasn't been overly impressive. The 2022 first-round draft pick may need to add more power (four home runs, .429 slugging percentage) to become an elite prospect.

  • Twins' Brooks Lee: Reassigned to minors camp

    Lee was reassigned Saturday by the Twins to minor-league camp, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. Lee was Minnesota's first-round pick in 2022, and struggled in his limited Grapefruit League action with a slash line of .182/.229/.242 over 35 plate appearances. He'll likely begin the season with Double-A Wichita, and he could see time with the Twins before the end of 2023.

  • Twins' Brooks Lee: Reaches Double-A in draft season

    Lee played his final two games of 2022 in Double-A, going 3-for-8 to round out a pro debut that saw him slash .303/.389/.451 with four home runs and a 16:20 BB:K across three levels of the minors. The No. 8 overall pick in this year's draft, Lee didn't look out of place at any of his three minor-league stops, continuing to show off the hitting ability that made him such a high draft choice. Just 21 years old, Lee will likely start 2023 in Double-A and could be pushing for a major-league roster spot by midseason, though Carlos Correa is set to man shortstop in Minnesota for the next two seasons.

  • Twins' Brooks Lee: Promoted to High-A

    Lee has been promoted to High-A Cedar Rapids after hitting .353/.471/.471 in four games for the FCL Twins, Darren Wolfson of Channel 5 Saint Paul reports. Lee was selected with the eighth overall pick in the 2022 First-Year Player Draft. As a 21-year old college player (Cal Poly), it's not a surprise he moved up right away. He could quickly advance next season.
