Good article on Buxton and if what we saw in September is for real.
I really am hoping he gets it this year. I hope Sano shows signs of work ethic.

Re: Is Buxton for real?
Another good read on Buxton and Hunter dynamic.

I liked the comment that said why not make Hunter the manager. Everything he touches seems to turn to gold.

Re: Is Buxton for real?
I just read the first article, Bleed...missed it first time you posted. What a terrific article! I'm trying to be a Buxton optimist, but he has been challenging to watch develop. But the author doers a great job of explaining why we can consider last September NOT a fluke. It's funny...after 2 years of vastly underachieving his enormous potential, his finish last year actually overachieved...his power was a very pleasant surprise to me. The defense and baserunning have been there right from the get go...if he can hit anywhere like he did last September, we have a perennial all star in CF.
Can't wait for pitchers and catchers!
