Is Buxton playing for the Twins tonight?

He was NOT playing every day. I checked the box scores from last week to confirm. He played on 6/8, 6/10, and 6/12. He did not play on 6/9, 6/11, or 6/13.

 

Apples and oranges. They were hoping Refsnyder would improve enough to get back to playing sooner, the idea being to avoid using the IL and possibly have to add someone to the 40-man. If they had another outfielder ready to go they probably would have put Refsnyder on the IL right away. The only outfielder on the 40-man not in the majors is Rooker and I'm sure they want someone who can play CF.

If they're worried about CF, they can demote Rortvedt instead of Celestino. Astudillo is perfectly capable of being the back-up catcher.

Does it matter? Teams cooked. Him and any other good players we plan on keeping past this year should sit out and rest up. Would rather watch rookies lose.

The only reason to watch the twins now is to see our only all star play. Please give us something to get excited about.

Still no Buxton tonight. This is getting ridiculous. Why is he even on the road trip?
