what the heck do Hicks and Buxton have to do to be called a stud? Both played quite well.

TK Guy, you should post your studs and duds under each day's Minor League Report, kind of as a summary of those articles, pointing out what you think the most important things were.

Agreed, this seems really redundant.

Buxton had a triple and not a HR

 

 

Unless he scored and it was originally ruled a triple with an error, but changed to an inside the park HR.

 

Based on the video of him rounding 2nd, it looked like he could have scored about 2 seconds after touching 3b.

Or  just above it?

 

This is kind-of an Executive Summary for the "Readers Twins Digest " crowd.

Only "Pretty Darn Good?"

 

After watching that amazing video of Buxton, I think you might want to create a special category above "STUD" for Buck.

He was timed as the fastest to 1B for a right handed prospect since some guy named Bo Jackson.

I won't believe he's any good until I see him jump over a volkswagen beetle, like Bo did.

I kind of like having it as a separate thread.  It's one person's evaluation and I don't want to see it proliferate to multiple posters starting a thread of their own studs and duds but TKGuy jumped on this.  So other posters could put their own lists here if they want.

 

Also keeps the minor league report thread a little cleaner.

I am also picking Bo over Buxton in Techmo Superbowl.
