Fri Aug 114:45Luke Keaschall to Continue Rehab Assignment
Minnesota Twins second base prospect Luke Keaschall (forearm) is expected to continue his rehab assignment with Triple-A St. Paul. Keaschall was serving as a DH throughout the majority of his first week of rehab and is now slated to see more time in the field before being slated off the 60-day injured list. Through his first 11 games of this rehab assignment, the former second-round pick has posted a .225/.319/.225 line with five stolen bases. Earlier this season, Keaschall made his MLB debut and immediately flashed upside at the major league level. Through his first seven games in Minnesota, Keaschall posted an elite .368/.538/.526 slash line with three doubles and five stolen bases. He is worth stashing in all standard formats ahead of his activation.

Mon Jul 2806:42Luke Keaschall Tallies Hit in Third-Straight Rehab Game
Minnesota Twins first base/second base prospect Luke Keaschall (forearm) went 1-for-6 with an RBI during his rehab game against Triple-A Worcester on Sunday evening. Keaschall has now tallied at least one hit in each of his past three rehab games. Through eight rehab games with Triple-A St. Paul, Keaschall has held a .219/.324/.219 line with two RBI and four stolen bases. The 22-year-old made his MLB debut earlier this season and flashed immense upside, posting a .368/.538/.526 line with three doubles and five stolen bases through seven games. However, he would suffer a foramen fracture, which has kept him sidelined since. Seeing him continue to showcase his speed during his rehab assignment is a very positive sign. He may be eligible to return to Minnesota later this week and is worth adding in all standard leagues prior to his activation.

Mon Jul 2114:25Luke Keaschall's Rehab Could be Prolonged
Minnesota Twins infield prospect Luke Keaschall (forearm) went 2-for-5 with two singles and a pair of steals on Sunday during his rehab assignment at Triple-A St. Paul. The Twins' third-ranked prospect has now completed three rehab games, going 3-for-12 -- all singles -- with a 3:1 BB:K and two steals so far. The former second-rounder is working his way back from a fractured right forearm, which he sustained during his debut stint with the Twins earlier this year. The 22-year-old was performing well before the injury, going 7-for-19 (.368) with three doubles, five steals, and a 5:2 BB:K in just seven games. As such, he should be back on the waiver wire radar in redraft leagues, however, per Dan Hayes of the Athletic, the rehab assignment is expected to be a little longer than normal in order to make sure he's fully confident with the health of his forearm.

Thu Jul 1714:31Luke Keaschall Starting Rehab Assignment on Friday
The Athletic's Dan Hayes reports that Minnesota Twins second base prospect Luke Keaschall (forearm) will start his rehab assignment with Triple-A St. Paul on Friday. Keaschall, the team's No. 3 prospect per MLB Pipeline, is returning to game action this weekend for the first time since fracturing the right ulna bone in his forearm in late April. The 22-year-old former second-rounder in 2023 out of Arizona State made his MLB debut with the Twins before that and went 7-for-19 with three doubles, two RBI, four runs scored and five stolen bases in just seven games played. Keaschall will probably have a lengthy rehab assignment, but when he's ready, he could return to Minnesota and provide an interesting power/speed combination for fantasy managers in deeper leagues. He's a hit over power prospect, but when combined with his wheels, he should have plenty of fantasy appeal.

Sat Jul 511:00Luke Keaschall to Take Live Batting Practice Soon
Minnesota Twins rookie infielder Luke Keaschall (forearm) is hitting off a pitching machine and close to taking live batting practice. Keaschall will eventually need to go on a rehab assignment before returning from a right-forearm fracture that has sidelined him for over two months. The 22-year-old entered the season as a consensus top 100 prospect and looked the part during his first seven games in the majors, as he went 7-for-19 with three doubles and five walks in 26 plate appearances. He has been out since a hit by pitch forced him to the IL on April 25.

Tue Jun 2412:12Luke Keaschall Hitting Off Tee
Per MLB.com, Minnesota Twins second baseman Luke Keaschall (forearm) has started hitting off a tee, but his baseball activities are still limited. The first-year pro sustained a fractured forearm near the end of April, and it's good news that he's begun striking a ball again. The initial timetable for Keaschall's return was "a couple months," so mid-to-late July is still in the cards for him. Minnesota's No. 3 prospect came out of the gates hot in his big-league debut, batting 7-for-19 (.368) with three doubles, five steals, and a 5:2 BB:K ratio over his first seven games as a pro. Keaschall will need a minor-league rehab stint, but should slot back into an everyday role upon his return.

Tue Apr 2912:08Luke Keaschall Expected To Miss At Least Two Months
Minnesota Twins infield prospect Luke Keaschall (forearm) is expected to miss at least a "couple of months" of action. Keaschall suffered a forearm fracture during Friday's contest after being hit by a pitch. While the infielder could avoid surgery, he will remain sidelined for at least the foreseeable future. The 22-year-old has enjoyed an impressive start to his MLB career as he posted a .368/.538/.526 slash line with three doubles and five stolen bases through seven games. During the first 14 games of the Triple-A regular season, the No. 58-ranked prospect in the sport on MLB Pipeline held a .261/.379/.348 line with one home run and four stolen bases. While Keaschall remains sidelined, fantasy managers should expect Edouard Julien to see more opportunities at the keystone.

Sat Apr 2600:38Twins Prospect Luke Keaschall Suffers Broken Forearm
Minnesota Twins infield/outfield prospect Luke Keaschall (forearm) was hit by a pitch in Friday's 11-4 win over the visiting Los Angeles Angels at Target Field and suffered a non-displaced fractured right forearm, according to The Athletic's Dan Hayes. The 22-year-old hit by the pitch in the first inning from a pitch by Kyle Hendricks and eventually departed the contest in the third inning and was at designated hitter by Mickey Gasper. It's a tough break for the team's No. 3 prospect (per MLB Pipeline), who has gone 7-for-19 with three doubles, two RBI, five stolen bases, four runs scored, five walks and two strikeouts in his first seven big-league games. At the very least, Keaschall should need a few weeks to recover, so he's almost certainly heading to the injured list. DaShawn Kiersey Jr. Gasper could mix in at DH, but the good news is third baseman Royce Lewis (hamstring) should be back soon for Minnesota.

Fri Apr 2521:34Luke Keaschall Removed Early On Friday
Minnesota Twins infielder Luke Keaschall (hand) was removed early during Friday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. Keaschall was hit on the hand by a pitch during the first inning of this contest. He stayed in to run the bases, but was replaced by Mickey Gasper at the designated hitter spot after that. The assumption is that Keaschall will undergo imaging to determine the severity of the injury. The organization should give an update on his status shortly.

Thu Apr 2401:33Luke Keaschall Shows Off Speed With Two Swipes
Minnesota Twins second baseman Luke Keaschall continued his impressive start in the majors, going 1-for-3 with a double, a run scored, and a pair of stolen bases in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Chicago White Sox. The No. 57 prospect on MLB Pipeline now has five steals in five major league games and is hitting .353 (6-for-17) over that small sample. He has also been hitting third in the Twins' lineup for the last few games, so the team might be buying into his hot start. While he is unlikely to provide much power, the 22-year-old should provide plenty of speed and a good average. He is worth a pickup in standard-size leagues for those looking to improve in those areas.

Sat Apr 1907:24Luke Keaschall Busy In MLB Debut
Minnesota Twins first baseman/second baseman Luke Keaschall was busy in his MLB debut on Friday evening. At the plate, he went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI, and a stolen base. He also scored a run. Keaschall would tally his RBI in the second frame on a single that scored catcher Ryan Jeffers. This was a promising debut for Keaschall, and this outing should keep him in the starting nine for the time being. Earlier in the season, Keaschall posted a strong .261/.379/.348 line across 14 games with Triple-A St. Paul. Keaschall would hit one double, one home run, and swiped four bags across this stint. Last season, the former second-round pick spent time with High-A and Double-A and held a cumulative .303/.420/.483 line. Fantasy managers in deeper formats should target Keaschall on the waiver wire this weekend.

Thu Apr 1719:58Twins Calling Up Prospect Luke Keaschall
The Minnesota Twins are expected to call up consensus top-100 prospect Luke Keaschall from Triple-A St. Paul this weekend to provide lineup help with injuries mounting early in the season, a team source told The Athletic's Aaron Gleeman. Third baseman Royce Lewis (hamstring) began the year on the injured list after getting hurt in spring training, and the Twins just placed outfielder Matt Wallner (hamstring) on the IL earlier this week. In addition, shortstop Carlos Correa (wrist) and utility man Willi Castro (oblique) were injured this week, leaving Minnesota's roster thin. Jose Miranda (hand) and Austin Martin (hamstring) are on the IL at St. Paul. Keaschall, a second-rounder in 2023, is the team's reigning minor-league player of the year and is ranked by MLB Pipeline as the team's No. 3 prospect. He has only played second base in the minors this year, but he also has experience at first and center field. Keaschall has underrated power potential and above-average speed and could see regular playing time in the short term.

Wed Mar 2607:42Luke Keaschall Returns To Second Base
Minnesota Twins infield prospect Luke Keaschall started at second base during a spring training game on Tuesday. This was the first time Keaschall got the start at second base since undergoing Tommy John surgery last August. Twins general manager Jeremy Zoll noted that he will "DH some" and he will "play second some." However, as the season progresses, the team hopes to bring him back to the outfield. Last summer, Keaschall began the campaign with High-A before moving up to Double-A. Across 44 games with High-A, Keaschall posted a stellar .335/.457/.544 slash line. During his first 58 games at the Double-A level, the 22-year-old posted a strong .281/.393/.439 line. Dynasty managers should expect the Arizona state product to begin the campaign at the Double-A level.
