June 14, 201511 yr How will everyone be celebrating National (yes, national) Byron Buxton Day? I personally just woke up and threw on my Chattanooga Lookouts Byron Buxton t shirt. For the rest of the day, anyone who chooses to converse with me will have to first listen to my Buxton excitement rant. Around 1:30 pm, I will probably start cracking the beers. During his first at bat, I'll pop a bottle of champagne and bust out the caviar. After his first hit, I will dump said champagne all over my head like below. So how will everyone else be celebrating?

June 14, 201511 yr Is he starting...for sure?You'll just have to wait until the game thread comes out to see the lineups!
June 14, 201511 yr I just wanna see his first at-bat, his first steal, and his first catch in center. We've been waiting a long time for this day. I don't really care about the stat line after the game. Buxton's got many years to show us what he's got. I also want to see Rosario, Buxton and Hicks in the outfield, left to right. I also want to see Alex Meyer on the mound, with Berrios and Wu in the rotation, and Nick Burdi ready to throw flames from the pen. I want to see Polanco at short, Sano at third, Max Kepler as 4th OF and 1B. I want to see AB Walker as DH and utility OF, and rumors of Nick Gordon and Kohl Stewart getting an early call... Sigh...

June 14, 201511 yr Congrats to your brother! Which junior college is he getting his sheepskin from?University of Washington. It's certainly no University of Oklahoma, and that is a very good thing.
