NEXT UP: Why Minnesota Twins Should LAUNCH Walker Jenkins to MLB Amid Byron Buxton’s Hip Concerns

Minnesota Twins fans face a potential shake-up as Byron Buxton’s hip injury sparks calls to promote top prospect Walker Jenkins. Should the Twins take the leap and bring Jenkins to the big leagues if Buxton lands on the injured list? C.J. Baumgartner explores why Jenkins—a dynamic outfielder with elite bat skills—might be the only real choice to keep Minnesota’s momentum alive, especially after their rare series win at Yankee Stadium.   The episode delivers a full farm system report, spotlighting Cody Clemens’ red-hot streak, Marco Raya’s rise in the bullpen hierarchy, and promising updates on arms like C.J. Culpepper and Riley Quick. Plus, what do the latest trade deadline rumors signal for the Twins’ playoff hopes as Ryan Kreidler’s performance dips and talk of selling fades? With stock reports, prospect watch, and strategic insight, this breakdown covers everything shaping the Minnesota Twins’ roster outlook.   Photo Credit: Jim Rassol-Imagn Images   Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…   🎧 https://lockedonpodcasts.com/podcasts/locked-on-twins/   Locked On MLB League-Wide: Every Team, Prospects & More 🎧 https://lockedonpodcasts.com/leagues/mlb/   00:00 — Buxton Injury & Walker Jenkins Call-Up Debate   12:02 — Twins Stock Up/Down: Clemens, Raya, & Kreidler   24:52 — Minor League Update: CJ Culpepper & Riley Quick   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
