How long do we keep saying this?

I know a bunch of you just love his defense, but that is all he has is his defense. Yup he is young but the problem with that is he is hitting in AAA and just cant hit major league pitching. Bring someone else on that can hit and field.

 

 

 

All Buxton is missing right now is his offense, if he starts to succeed in that department he is a Hall of Famer.

This afternoon is the final game of a four game series at Target Field. Twins will look to even the series before Cleveland comes into town this weekend.   Start time: 12:10 CDT   Weather:   http:/

Well, it's maybe not quite how they drew it up, but the Twins pulled off the split in the series, and added the bonus of another excellent Berrios start.   http://i.imgur.com/f6nju.gif

You know what they always say...play .500 at home and win on the road.

I did not know that one, but looked it up. Good one!

 

Thanks for reminding me... meant to go back and plug in the answer after people had a chance to guess/google.

I hope Molly is quick with a hook here if it starts to get ugly...

Funny my mlb game cast said Cano got a single, hence the above post...guess he made an out!

Good grief stop it with this nonsense.

 

Buxton is a big big reason this team is in first and not in last. His defense alone makes him a valuable player - he is, bar none, the best defensive center fielder in the league. 

 

Absent the first couple of weeks of the season, and he's hitting at a relatively decent clip. Sure, he went 0-4 today. But he went 3-3 yesterday with a homer a double, a single and a walk, and he was 2-4 the game before that. 

 

Some players just take longer to adjust. Give him time and he'll be fine. But even if he isn't, his defense is all world.

Plus, it's far too early to give up on a 23 year old playing in what figures to be his first full major league season.

I held off because it was LaBombo's video, but I still don't see an answer from him, so: Chip Hale.

 

I did finally go back and add the answer to my post, but with encryption rivaling U-boat Enigma codes. Giver-uppers will have to push through to ash's post at the end to find the answer.

Fudge. I was having network troubles, thus had a backlog of posts to check, and I took the shortcut of doing a search on "Hale". Next time I'll include spoonerisms too, and maybe anagrams.
