BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 11% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: With Royce Lewis heading back to the IL (again), the Twins have called up their number two prospect, shortstop Brooks Lee.
Lee is the 13th-rated overall hitting prospect in baseball and has been having an incredibly successful year at Triple-A St. Paul. The 23-year-old switch hitter is slashing .350/.412/.585 in 30 minor league games with 20 of those games being at the Triple-A level.

Lee has shown impressive power for a middle infielder, smashing seven home runs in just 85 at-bats at Triple-A. He's walked nine times compared to 13 strikeouts which is a great ratio to see from a young player.
He's going to hit eighth tonight in his big league debut and play third base. As a switch-hitter, he could end up playing on an everyday basis if he gets off to a solid start at the plate. He's still available in 89% of leagues and should be picked up in all but perhaps the shallowest of formats.
