Twins' Walker Jenkins: Officially called up, batting ninth
The Twins selected Jenkins' contract from Triple-A St. Paul on Friday.
News broke Thursday that Jenkins was on his way to the big leagues, and his promotion is now official. The top prospect missed time with a shoulder injury this season, but when healthy he slashed .308/.407/.532 with 12 home runs, 17 stolen bases and a 42:48 BB:K over 69 games with St. Paul. Jenkins has primarily been a center fielder in the minors, but he's capable of handling all three outfield positions. He's starting in center field and batting ninth Friday versus the White Sox in his major-league debut.

Twins' Walker Jenkins: Making MLB debut Friday
The Twins are expected to select Jenkins' contract from Triple-A St. Paul on Friday, Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com reports.
Widely viewed as the top prospect in the Twins' farm system, Jenkins will join the major-league roster after slashing .411/.488/.795 with eight homers, 13 RBI, 16 runs scored and seven steals across 84 plate appearances at St. Paul since the beginning of August. The 21-year-old is unlikely to supplant Byron Buxton as the Twins' primary center fielder, though Jenkins may take over for the veteran if Buxton's hip injury forces him to the injured list. Otherwise, Jenkins could see time in either outfield corner.

Twins' Walker Jenkins: Returns from 7-day IL
Triple-A St. Paul reinstated Jenkins (shoulder) from its 7-day injured list Monday.
Jenkins is expected to return to the St. Paul lineup for Tuesday's series opener with Louisville in what will mark his first appearance for the Triple-A club since May 3. The 21-year-old outfielder missed just over seven weeks due to a Grade 2 AC joint sprain in his left shoulder but was able to knock off some rust during a four-game rehab assignment at High-A Cedar Rapids last week. He was dialed in at the plate during his time with Cedar Rapids, going 9-for-16 with two home runs, one double and a 1:2 BB:K.

Twins' Walker Jenkins: Nearing rehab assignment
Jenkins (shoulder) could start a rehab assignment with Single-A Fort Myers as soon as Saturday, Aaron Gleeman of AaronGleeman.com reports.
Jenkins, one of the Twins' top prospects, has been on Triple-A St. Paul's 7-day injured list since early May due to a Grade 2 AC join sprain in his left shoulder. He's on the cusp of embarking on a rehab assignment, and if that goes well, he could be back in Triple-A by late June. Prior to his injury, Jenkins was slashing .256/.396/.389 with five steals, two homers and nine RBI over 111 plate appearances with St. Paul.

Twins' Walker Jenkins: Hitting again
Jenkins (shoulder) recently resumed hitting against live pitching and could soon head out on a rehab assignment, MLB.com reports.
One of the Twins' top prospects, Jenkins might have already made his MLB debut had multiple injuries over his first four seasons in the professional ranks not cost him development time. He's currently on the mend from a Grade 2 AC joint sprain in his left shoulder, which forced him to Triple-A St. Paul's 7-day injured list May 5. Now that he's reached a major milestone in the recovery process by facing live pitching in addition to taking part in defensive work, Jenkins appears to be closing in on a return to game action. The 21-year-old outfielder had slashed .256/.396/.389 with two home runs and five stolen bases across 111 plate appearances for St. Paul before hitting the shelf.

Twins' Walker Jenkins: Nearing baseball activity
Twins manager Jeremy Zoll said Saturday that Jenkins (shoulder) is "reporting improvements daily" and could begin light baseball activity in about a week, Bobby Nightengale of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
Jenkins slashed .256/.396/.389 with two home runs, five stolen bases and a 17.4 percent walk rate over 111 plate appearances at Triple-A St. Paul to begin the season before sustaining a Grade 2 AC joint sprain in his left shoulder May 3. Though the young outfielder seems to be making good progress in his recovery, Zoll said that Jenkins is about a month away from returning to game action. If Jenkins can return to action for St. Paul by late June, he should still have a chance at making his MLB debut at some point in the second half of the season.
