3 years agoThe Minnesota Twins shortstop Royce Lewis picked up his first major league hit on Friday in the Twins' 2-1 win over the Oakland A's. Lewis, the first overall draft pick in the 2017 MLB draft, the Twins' top prospect, and 44th overall MLB prospect per MLB Pipeline, went 1-for-4 with a single. He was called up following an injury to Carlos Correa (finger) and should remain with the Twins until Correa returns. Over 23 games at Triple-A this year, he has slashed .310/.427/.560 with three home runs, 10 doubles, eight stolen bases, 11 RBI, and 20 runs scored. In redraft formats, Lewis is worth adding as a plug-and-play until such time that Correa is back. Lewis should be starting regularly while he is up with the big league club. Redraft managers should temper expectations though since it is likely the Twins will send Lewis back down to the minors once Correa returns so that he can get regular playing time.--Nick Ritrivi - RotoBaller
