Buxton, Ty. Megill, Torkelson, V. Scott, Santillan
Mar 30 2025
Buxton's 2024 was encouraging, when healthy... By now, you know the deal with Byron Buxton (OF, MIN): when healthy, he'll deliver lots of fantasy value, but he's never healthy for a full season. 2024 was no exception, as he spent 48 days on the IL in addition to days off for rest and recovery; when he played, he posted an .859 OPS, his best mark since 2021, and a strong rebound after a big batting average drop in 2023. Did his skills bounce back as well?
