Walker Jenkins Diagnosed with Grade 2 AC Joint Sprain
Minnesota Twins outfield prospect Walker Jenkins (shoulder) has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 AC joint sprain in his left shoulder and will be re-evaluated in 10 days to further determine his return timeline, per Dan Hayes of The Athletic. Jenkins suffered the injury by colliding with the outfield wall while playing in a game with Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday. The 21-year-old is widely considered one of the best prospects in all of baseball and was hitting .256/.396/.389 with two home runs, nine RBI, 15 runs scored, and five stolen bases across 111 plate appearances at Triple-A before getting injured. While it's still possible that Jenkins will make his MLB debut in 2026, this injury will undoubtedly set him back. Fantasy managers should check back in 10 days once Jenkins is given a firmer return timeline.
