Yes. Mauer was overpaid and underproduced for what he was paid. You can blame that on GM Smith. His behavior didn't help. Didn't even bother to show up when they made 4 yes, 4 different bobbleheads to him during one season after he retired. Maybe the current management has better brains. But I'm not sure. The first thing they did when they rode into town was to trade Ryan Pressly during a pennant race!!. How crazy that was. They better have a grip. Keep Buxton with an honest offer!! Don't give him up just because the you think the market is too high!!
