Twins Draft Picks Building Future | Minnesota Twins News

The Minnesota Twins are crushing it with their first-round draft picks over the last five years, turning raw talent into playoff magic. Chase Petty, traded for Sonny Gray—who led them to their first postseason win in 21 years—was part of a savvy move. Brooks Lee, the 2022 eighth-overall pick, is having his best pro season yet with 14 homers and 48 RBIs. Walker Jenkins, taken fifth in 2023, is already tearing it up at Triple-A despite early injuries, and Kaelen Culpepper, drafted 21st in 2024, is surging past his injury setbacks to become the team’s No. 2 prospect. And Marek Houston, the 2025 16th pick, is showing promise at Double-A. The Twins aren’t just drafting—they’re building a future that’s already winning.
