Twins No. 2 prospect Culpepper celebrates Triple-A twin bill with pair of homers

Kaelen Culpepper, the Minnesota Twins' No. 2 prospect and MLB Pipeline's No. 49 overall prospect, made a significant impact on Sunday, May 2, 2026, during a Triple-A doubleheader. Culpepper, a 2024 first-round pick, recorded his first multi-homer day of the season, with both long balls occurring across St. Paul's twin bill.

The young prospect tallied two hits in the doubleheader, and both of those hits left the yard, showcasing his power at the Triple-A level. While the specific location of the games was St. Paul, his performance is of interest to local baseball enthusiasts in Dunedin who follow the Twins' farm system, especially with the team's spring training ties to Florida.

Culpepper's ability to hit for power is a promising sign for his development and future with the Minnesota Twins organization.
