Twins 2B prospect Luke Keaschall pumped to be playing in Saturday’s MLB Futures Game
Twins 2023 2nd-round draft pick Luke Keaschall will play in Saturday’s MLB Futures Game in Arlington, TX. He was added after Brooks Lee received a promotion to the big leagues.
Keaschall, 21, is hitting .326/.440/.951 with 7 home runs, 23 RBI and 15 stolen bases with the Wichita Wind Surge at AA. His main position is second base, although he noted that he’s even played one game this year at first base.
He started this season in Cedar Rapids with High-A Kernels before being called up to AA in late May after 44 games.
