Byron Buxton Taking Things Slow
5 years agoMinnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (shoulder) participated in a live batting practice session and hit a couple of long balls on Wednesday. Buxton said his shoulder was a little sore after the swings, which isn't shocking considering the length of time he's gone without playing. At this point, it's unclear if he'll be ready for the first game of the season. The 26-year-old hasn't played 100 or more games since the 2017 campaign. Buxton could approach 20 home runs and 20 steals, especially if health is finally on his side, but that's the risk you take in drafting the oft-injured power/speed threat.
