Kaelen Culpepper Hits Second Double-A Home Run
The Twins seem to have cornered the market when it comes to drafting well-rounded college infielders, and 2024 first-rounder Kaelen Culpepper is a perfect example. The 22-year-old homered for the second time since his promotion to Double-A Wichita last week and continues to show more pop than expected. Culpepper is now up to 11 homers and a .293/.383/.491 line with 22 extra-base hits, 15 steals and 47 starts at shortstop over 58 games. Much like Luke Keaschall before him, Culpepper is enjoying a standout full-season debut following his draft year.
