Whether or not the knee issue is still bothering him enough to be a problem at the plate or in the field, I don't think any of us know. At some point, we have to trust their judgement and their process. I don't know if going on the IL is the way to go. My feeling is no. At least not right now. I'm sure he's getting treatment on the knee every day. The start he got off to this season, was fantastic and better than he probably actually is...and the slump he's in right now, is much worse than he actually is. I'm sure teams/scouts/pitchers have made adjustments based on that hot start, to get him out, and Buxton has to make adjustments to their adjustments to find his hitting groove again. He's always been a streaky hitter anyway, not a consistent on base machine.
