A well-deserved award for Buxton. Congratulations to him!

Buxton's Silver Slugger would appear to be the only post-season award won by a Twin. Does he get a salary bump for this? I know he gets something for placing in the MVP voting.

Love this guy...more excitement per pound than any Twin I can remember, and he's fiercely loyal to the team and to Minnesota.
