Minny505 Verified Member Posted May 22, 2023 Posted May 22, 2023 The irony of Buxton being load managed as a DH only is that, IF he stays healthy and IF he maintains a 130ish OPS+/wRC+, he will be worth about 0.5 fWAR less than either 2021 or 2022. The team is probably better off playing him in CF 4 times a week and crossing their fingers. Maybe then go back to DHing him in September, if he is still healthy, to improve his chances of playing in the playoffs.
