Article: Player Predictions: CF Byron Buxton

Featured Replies

Bold prediction:  Bux will have a 4 hit game this year all on bunts.

.255/320/.390

 

 

Which I would consider a pretty good "rookie" season to be honest for how raw he is.

Buck will be cool in the spring but as the weather warms so will he and as August fades and summers glow dims the weather will chill the man will turn stone cold, as in stone cold murderer. I look for 20,20,and a 100. That is 20 90 yard sprints, 20 thefts, and a 100 notches in the scoring column. September 10 thefts, 5 round trip tickets, 10 90 yard sprints, a .300 batting average, 25 notches in the scoring column, leading the Twins to a wild card birth.

 

He was 2 for 4... not really much to hang your hat on. Are you more concerned with success rate, or relative lack of attempts?

 

both....they didn't have him run much, he doesn't get on base much, and his success rate was low (SSSS* it's true).

 

super small sample size

I think that next to Rosario, who I think is going to have a major breakout year, Buxton is going to shine. First, he's going to be a defensive wonder kind. Secondly, he's going to figure out major league hitting as he has done throughout the minors...struggle for a while, then look out! Because of his defense he's going to be a major + player. With Rosario's fielding and arm in left and Buck in center, the Twins will have 2/3rds of a real shut down outfield.
