He definitely is/was a combo of rushed and injury prone. He made a catch last week that he dove and didn't have to. He just needs to stay on the field now.

Big league glove, A ball bat He's going to need to go back down next season and improve that bat at least a little to justify even being a backup outfielder in the Majors, no matter how elite his defense is.

You just start listing names. And don't leave someone out because you,me or a few others supported them.

elrockinMT Posted August 30, 2017 Author Share Posted August 30, 2017 Avi Garcia is a prime example and look at him this year. Just drove a double off the wall opposite way. His batting average is #2 in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been some wantng Avi gone, Saladino and Leury gone, same for Sanchez and Anderson Its natural for fans to be impatient, especially if certain guys come tagged with certain hype (e.g., Avi in 2013 being billed as "Little Miggy"). More importantly, our fans are no different than other fans. Twins fans were just as cynical of Buxton up until this season as our fans were on the guys you listed.
