Buxton Out Again With Hip Strain | Minnesota Twins News

Byron Buxton’s All-Star season is on hold after a hip strain sidelines him for at least ten days—just days after being named an All-Star starter. The Twins’ star outfielder, who’s crushing the ball with a .270 average and 25 homers in 75 games, aggravated the injury during a stolen base attempt last Sunday. This isn’t his first rodeo with hip issues this year—he missed games earlier in May and had to exit a game early. The Twins have called up Alan Roden to fill his spot. Here’s hoping this short break gives Buxton the time he needs to heal and return at his All-Star caliber. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
