Lee has 16 homers despite amassing just 22 barrels in 504 plate appearances. Today’s off Matt Festa was hit 411 feet, making it his third longest flyball of the year. His exit velocity numbers are so mediocre that it’s hard to see him getting a lot better than he is now. Still, he’s pretty good about pulling his flyballs and he makes quite a bit of contact, which is a good combination. The .241/.290/.381 in 2025 may not be enough to make him a regular.

Although he didn’t play Tuesday, Lee still finished with five hits, including a homer, in the series against the Yankees. He had batted .135/.207/.154 in his previous 15 games coming into the week.

Lee doubled home a run in the Twins’ two-run fifth, the only runs they’d score in this game. He extended his hitting streak to seven games in the process and has been one of the primary beneficiaries to Minnesota’s trade deadline exodus playing in every game but one this month.

Lee reached on a fielding error to lead off the second inning and scored on a double by Matt Wallner. He later took Jacob Lopez deep for a solo homer in the fourth inning. The 24-year-old infielder is hitting .245/.288/.390 with 13 homers and 52 RBI across 393 plate appearances.

Lee’s home run was his 12th of the year. The 24-year-old infielder hit a grand slam off Chris Paddack in the third inning to put the Twins ahead 7-1. Lee’s home run was his second in 15 games in July. He’s hitting .245 with a .671 OPS and 51 RBI on the season.

Lee tripled in a pair of runs off Casey Mize in the fifth inning, and he added his third RBI of the game and 47th of the season on a fielder’s choice two innings later. The 24-year-old has been up-and-down in 2025 as seen in a .244/.286/.375 slash, but there’s been enough good to be encouraged about his future campaigns.

The switch-hitting shortstop will get a breather after starting each of the team’s previous 11 games. Ryan Fitzgerald will start in his place at shortstop and will bat ninth against Yankees’ left-hander Carlos Rodon.

Lee came off the bench after Carlos Correa left the contest early on with an illness and was one of the few bright spots for the Twins in a one-sided affair. He got Minnesota on the scoreboard with a fifth-inning RBI single before taking Red Sox reliever Justin Wilson deep in the seventh and tagging former teammate Jorge Alcala for a two-run blast in the ninth. It was his first career multi-homer performance and he’s now up to 10 round-trippers on the season.

The Red Sox scored in the top of the ninth to take a 4-3 lead tonight, but a rain delay then shut things down for an hour and a half. When play resumed in a mostly empty stadium, the Twins got a single from DeShawn Keisey Jr., back-to-back hit by pitches and then Lee’s hit to left with one out. The two runs batted in were Lee’s first of the second half. He was out of the starting lineup tonight for the first time in five games, but he entered the game for Koby Clemens against a left-hander in the seventh.

Lee had the day off on Wednesday while Willi Castro moved into the infield to play second base. Until there is a trade, this is likely going to be how things play out in Minnesota. They have too many bats for the amount of spots in the lineup, so players like Lee, Byron Buxton, Royce Lewis, and Ty France will all likely rest at least one game per week. Buxton is out of the lineup on Thursday.

Lee entered the game as a pinch-hitter in the seventh and flew out then. He came up in the ninth with none out and runners on the corners and rolled one down the first base line for an easy game-winner. It went as a single, since the Rays let it go in the hopes that it would roll foul. This was Lee’s second straight game out of the starting lineup, even though he’s hitting .324/.352/.490 since the beginning of July. Royce Lewis’s return has complicated the Twins’ lineup, but it seems like there should still be room for Lee most days. It’s not like the rest of the offense is thriving.

Willi Castro is getting the nod over Harrison Bader in left. Kody Clemens is also out of the lineup after starting against most right-handers in recent weeks. Clemens could get some starts at second against righties if Lee cools off, but Lee is the definite starter for now after hitting .348/.375/.533 over 96 plate appearances in June.

Lee got the scoring started in the ballgame with a two-out RBI double off of Sawyer Gipson-Long in the fourth inning. He also chipped in an RBI single in the sixth inning that extended the Twins’ advantage to 3-0. The 24-year-old infielder has done a nice job in his time with the Twins this season, slashing a healthy .281/.316/.417 with eight homers, 32 RBI and one stolen base through his first 250 plate appearances.

Lee hit a solo homer off Zach Pop in the sixth inning to give the Twins a 3-0 lead. Minnesota would end up scoring another seven runs in the inning. It’s been a strong month of June for the 24-year-old, as Lee has now homered four times with a .907 OPS over those 77 at-bats since the end of May.

The homer makes it a good day, of course, but it was a 345-foot fly to left that was only a homer in one major league ballpark and probably a hit in just one other (it’d have gone off the Green Monster in Fenway). Lee struck out in his other three at-bats. He has been performing well on the whole lately, though; he’s batting .341/.372/.537 in 12 games this month.

Lee’s home run was his fifth of the season. He hit a solo shot off Bowden Francis in the fourth inning. It was Lee’s first home run since May 14th and he had a .235 SLG in his last 21 games entering play Sunday. Lee isn’t likely to play as much with Royce Lewis and Carlos Correa back healthy.

Lee snuck an 86-mph grounder by Jonathan India at second base to score Carlos Correa, who had walked as a pinch-hitter. Lee came into the day 0-for-10 in his previous three games and with a .208/.235/.325 line for the month of May. He still has some work to do to ensure that he remains in the Twins’ plans if they ever have all of their position players healthy at once.

Lee moved over to shortstop for Sunday’s with Carlos Correa scratched from the lineup. The 24-year-old infielder was a big part of the Twins’ comeback victory against the Giants on Sunday. Lee’s two-run home run in the fourth inning cut the Twins deficit to 3-2 and he scored the winning run in extra innings. Lee is hitting .253 with nine RBI and a .703 OPS on the season.

Lee put Minnesota on the scoreboard with an eighth-inning solo shot off reliever Hunter Gaddis. The 24-year-old former top prospect figures to continue playing regularly between second and third base until Willi Castro (oblique) is ready to return from the injured list.

Raley returned to the Mets earlier this week on a one-year contract with a club option for 2026. He’s likely to rejoin New York’s bullpen at some point in the second half. The procedural move opens up a 40-man roster spot for now.

The Twins are probably going to get Royce Lewis back next week and Luke Keaschall certainly seems poised to stick around after that happens, so Lee and Edouard Julien are back jockeying for position. At this point, Lee would seem to have the clear edge on Julien; he’s the superior defender and he’s posted a .721 OPS in 10 games since coming off the IL, compared to .611 in 22 games for Julien. Julien, though, would still seem to be the better bet against right-handed pitching going forward. The Twins figure to keep both on the roster initially after Lewis returns; it’s just a matter of who is going to get more playing time.

With Carlos Correa (wrist) not in the lineup on Wednesday, Willi Castro will slide over to shortstop, and Brooks Lee will enter the lineup at third base. Lee has gone 2-for-7 with a home run and two RBI in two games since coming off the IL. If Correa were to wind up on the injured list, Lee would figure to see a big bump in playing time.

Lee took over for Carlos Correa in the fifth inning of this one and made his presence felt off the bench. After striking out in his first at-bat he walloped a 386-foot solo shot off of Max Kranick in the seventh inning that extended the Mets’ lead to 6-3. If Correa is forced to miss any time with his wrist injury, the door could be open for Lee to see regular playing time in the Twins’ infield.

Lee is at third base and batting eighth on Sunday against the Tigers in his season debut. The 24-year-old former top prospect missed the start of the regular season with back tightness, but he’s ready to go after a brief minor league rehab assignment. There’s plenty of upside here, but it’s going to be challenging for fantasy managers to find roster space for him outside of extremely deep mixed leagues and AL-only formats.
