4 Triple-A Players Not Named Walker Jenkins Who Can Help the Twins
Twins Daily • • sports
Key Points:
- The Minnesota Twins are evaluating several Triple-A players from the St. Paul Saints as potential reinforcements for the final weeks of the regular season, including top prospect Walker Jenkins.
- Outfielder Matt Wallner has showcased significant power with a new single-season home run record for the Saints, making him a possible option if the Twins face injuries or need a left-handed bat.
- Gabriel Gonzalez, despite a down season compared to 2025, has shown strong offensive performance in August, potentially making him a valuable right-handed bench player.
- Utility player Ben Ross offers defensive versatility and a strong offensive presence, particularly against left-handed pitching, which could make him a flexible bench asset.
- Right-handed reliever Marco Raya has had inconsistent results but could fill a specialized bullpen role with short, aggressive appearances to support the Twins' pitching needs during the playoff push.
