Vegas Releases Odds On Next Byron Buxton Injury

Joins Spinal Tap reunion tour as a drummer and spontaneously explodes during a show at a blues festival.

Sharp money is seeing a lot of value in the line movement around "comes at king, misses." 

Thanks, Stu, needed a good smile this morning!

This, my friends is vintage Stu.  If I had to bet my kids' college money on this, which currently consists of an aging $100 bill in my wallet that I'm afraid to break, I'd go with the Toilet Explosion, because it only stretches credulity a smidge.

Don't get suckered into that "Fast Zombie" thing.  There is no such thing in real life.  I believe those are technically called ghouls, although I'd have to consult my D and D manual to be sure.

I don't know whether to smile or to groan. Sigh. Please heal quickly Mr. Buxton!

Noteworthy that bilateral leg weakness didn't make the board at 100-1.

Most definitely not wishing it on anyone and kind of hate to go here but if you like irony then maybe Lou Gehrig's disease would be the bet.

Stu was already stretching reality with the zombie uprisings.  That would have been too fantastic.

Surgery to remove whatever that thing is sticking out of his mouth in the accompanying pic goes poorly. 125-1. Further examination reveals the object to be the rear door handle from a 2014 Audi that Buxton ran into when he raced down to Taco Bell for a late night snack before they closed at 10.

I do feel bad for th guy. Basically another half-sesaon lost. He does show progress over past seasons, and makes it look good that the Twins do have that extra arbitration season under their hat.

But Byron is going to be pushed. Could Kepler move to centerfield. Is Kirilloff the next great centerfield prospect. Who is in right or left come 2022. 

Seriously, the Twins could have an outfield of Kepler/Buxton/Rosario for4-6 more seasons, but who do YOU see playing the outfield in 2022 let alone 2024?
