7 years agoMinnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton is off to a fast start this spring. The young outfielder is batting .318 with one homer, four runs, three RBI, and three stolen bases. Buxton is among the fastest players in MLB and his elite defense guarantees he will be in the lineup on a daily basis. He got off to a slow start in the 2017 season, but he hit .300 over the second half. Recently, the Twins and Buxton have been discussing a long-term contract which would lock up Buxton through his arbitration years. A deal would give Buxton some security while also saving Minnesota some money over the long haul. He is a player who could wind up being a draft-day steal if he's able to avoid a slow start and put together a full season.--Matt T - RotoBaller
