Keeping Byron Buxton

Keeping Byron Buxton
Share this story
Through the first seventeen games of the season, Byron Buxton is hitting .438 with an OPS close to 1.5. He feels confident, he looks confident and the Twins would be talking about the Nelson Cruz trade market without him. With a strangely low amount of fanfare, he has established himself as the most exciting player in the game.
It’s been quite a rise since the pandemic began for Buxton—At the end of 2019 he was facing serious shoulder surgery and had shown himself to be, when healthy, a defensive specialist who could eke out an .800 OPS. Provided he got hot at the right time, his production would fall somewhere between Jason Heyward and Peter Bourjos.

JAWS and the 2021 Hall of Fame Ballot: Torii Hunter

Torii Hunter could go get it. Fluid and graceful while patrolling center field, he was renowned for his leaping, acrobatic catches and his willingness to sacrifice his body. He made a strong enough impression upon those who watched him that he won nine Gold Gloves during his 19-year career, more than all but three center fielders, namely Willie Mays, Ken Griffey Jr., and Andruw Jones. Hunter earned the nickname “Spider-Man” for his ability to climb outfield walls to steal home runs — something he did more than just about anybody else during his career — though one attempt to do so at Fenway Park left him with a broken ankle, and another a concussion.
