This is the first time in Buxton's short career that I've actually felt some confidence that he's not going to strike out on the curve ball away. If this season isn't his "break out" then I feel like next year will be. If he can build on this success he'll be the MVP candidate we were expecting when he was drafted. I'd really push to sign him to an extension this winter, even if the price is very high ... and take out concussion insurance.
