Buxton needs Hip surgery, but it looks like the playoffs come first.

We are only three games out, but what happened to letting the kids play? I really don't think

Byron at anything under 100% is worth pushing for the last wild card spot.

Yeah if only we'd had a guy that could have been playing at 100% through the entire month of August sitting in AAA.

He’s probably more useful than Gabriel Gonzalez. 
 

Is Austin Martin going to come back in September?

Calling all doctors ... what's the real verdict on Buxton's current health situation? Can he play at a productive level this month even with these "hip issues" ? And if so, does that mean DH only duty?

Buck...I love ya....but go get your hip fixed.

Hoping for the best tonight and recognizing that it's only small sample size to go on, but if not for a home run off of a position playing during a blowout, I believe Jenkins's OPS would be sitting under .500(!) right now.

Real doctors will be a lot less certain about your questions than us Internet Experts.  😁

We're really going to judge him already?

I was responding to the reverse judgment.
