Byron Buxton Ready to Start 60 Game Season on the 60 Day DL
Buxton, who has only ever played one non-injury plagued season since being called up to the majors in 2015, credits Twins legend Joe Mauer as inspiration.
“That dude was great” shouted Buxton, whiffing once again in the batting cages “He got paid plenty of money and couldn’t stay out of the DL to save his life.” Buxton then took a ball to the helmet, but was fine.
