Still really like Polanco offensively, but ... https://www.foxsports.com/mlb/stats?season=2019&category=FIELDING&group=1&sort=6&time=0&pos=0&qual=1&sortOrder=0&splitType=0&page=1&statID=0

I see no less than 3 former Twin farmhands listed as top rookies (perhaps there are more) in 2018 - Niko Goodrum, Daniel Palka, and Dereck Rodriguez. https://www.mlb.com/twins/news/each-mlb-teams-best-rookie-in-2018/c-295301448 Did we blow it or are these flukes?

Agree that Buck needs to turn around his hitting to stay and that his defense is both difficult to measure and incredibly important to the game's flow. Need only look back to the Kepler error against Cleveland in the first inning that taxed Phil Hughes and Rosario's non-catch in center against Houston during their comeback. Buxton's not perfect nor can all fielders be expected to be perfect, but you have to appreciate the effect his catches have on the game and his pitchers.
