| 12/14/25 | Minnesota Twins Top 10 Prospects For 2026 Fantasy Baseball. 1. OF Walker Jenkins | 21 | AAA | 2026
The sixth overall pick in the stacked 2023 class, Jenkins is a left-handed hitter with power and plate skills listed at 6’3” 210 pounds, but as I say all the time around here, those measurements look a little out of date. He’s dealt with some injuries that have cost him reps but steadily climbed the organization ladder nonetheless, closing out 2025 with 23 games in Triple-A. In 84 games across four levels, he slashed .286/.399/.451 with ten home runs and 17 stolen bases. It’s tough to predict how the team will handle his timeline. They seem to go back and forth on trading Joe Ryan every other day. If they keep him, Jenkins could be up early. If they move him this winter, I’d bet they’ll slow-play their season in general.

Jenkins earned the call-up following an impressive stretch at Double-A Wichita, where he hit .309 with a .426 on-base percentage and .487 slugging percentage across 52 games.

| 5/21/25 | Three Twins prospects make the cut in updated top 50 rankings. The Minnesota Twins have three of the 50 best prospects in baseball, according to ESPN's new prospect rankings. Holding the top spot among Twins prospects, once again, is outfielder Walker Jenkins, who came in at No. 9 in the 'midseason' rankings. A large reason for the drop is injuries. Jenkins has only played two games so far in 2025, both coming back in April for Double-A Wichita. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/twins/minnesota-twins-news/... |
| 4/29/25 | Twins' top prospect Walker Jenkins can't shake nagging ankle injury. If Walker Jenkins is going to rise fast through the Minnesota Twins' farm system, he's going to need his ankle to start cooperating. On Tuesday, the Twins revealed negative news on the club's No. 1 prospect, saying Jenkins will be out through at least the end of May due to lingering ankle soreness. Jenkins received a cortisone injection in his left ankle — the ankle that he sprained during spring training and then played two games and had eight at-bats at Double-A Wichita before being shut down because of discomfort in the ankle. Jenkins missed the first two months of last season at Class A after suffering a hamstring injury on Opening Day. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/twins/minnesota-twins-news/... |

Jenkins could miss the start of exhibition play, but the injury is not expected to be anything too serious. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/twins/minnesota-twins-news/... |

Keaschall, who was named the Twins' minor league player of the year in 2024, finished last season at Double-A Wichita. Source: https://www.twincities.com/2025/02/10/prospects-lu... |
| 2/03/25 | Twins' top prospect Walker Jenkins sets expectations high. Walker Jenkins, put simply, looks like a baseball player. Jenkins, 19, may still be a teenager, but he's No. 3 overall prospect, per MLB Pipeline, in the game and the expectations around him are sky high. If it were up to Jenkins, his debut would come this year, but the Twins will be sure not to rush the outfielder who is such a pivotal part of their future. In his first full season as a professional, Jenkins hit .282 with a .833 OPS. Source: https://www.twincities.com/2025/02/03/twins-top-pr... |
| 1/30/25 | Twins prospect Walker Jenkins welcomes high expectations after 'below average' season. Even if Jenkins didn't have the perfect season he wanted — he had a 28-game on-base streak during June and July — scouts raved about him. A 6-3, 210-pound lefthanded hitter, he has a swing eerily reminiscent of Joe Mauer's. His plate discipline is rare for a hitter with as much power as he has. He's ranked as the sport's No. 3 prospect by MLB Pipeline and No. 5 by Baseball America. Source: https://www.startribune.com/minnesota-twins-walker... |
| 1/26/25 | Texas Rangers Prized Prospect Could Be MLB's Best in Next Year's Rankings.

After releasing its Top 100, Baseball America's staff assembled their staff to project which prospect would top the overall rankings next January. Walcott was one of two players that earned multiple nods, the other being the Minnesota Twins' Walker Jenkins. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/rangers/news/texas-rangers-... |
| 1/05/25 | Minnesota Twins Top 10 Prospects For 2025 Fantasy Baseball. 1. OF Walker Jenkins | 20 | AA | 2026
A left-handed hitter at 6’3” 210 lbs, Jenkins walked more than he struck out and slashed .282/.394/.439 in 82 professional games during his first full season. The sixth overall pick in the stacked 2023 class, Jenkins took the top spot on this list last year and is the odds-on favorite to claim it again next season unless the Twinkies really slam the gas on his development: an outcome he might invite with a hot start at Double-A.

| 9/11/24 | MLB's No. 2 prospect Walker Jenkins called up by Twins to Wichita. There may only be one week left of the 2024 season at Riverfront Stadium, but it will feature a star in the making. Last year's 5th overall pick Walker Jenkins is currently listed as the No. 2-ranked prospect in all of Major League Baseball and No. 1-ranked prospect for the Minnesota Twins. The top prospect is still just 19 years old after being drafted out of high school, but has already climbed the ranks to AA (Double-A) in Wichita in his first full season of professional baseball.
