Although Buxton is not in Wednesday's lineup against Oakland he is available off the bench, Brandon Wayne of Cold Omaha reports. He went 2-for-3 with a walk in Tuesday's win over the A's.
Buxton missed two games after becoming sore and sustaining cuts on his arm after running into the outfield wall in Friday's game. He ran into the wall again Tuesday to make a catch, so he could be sore again. Buxton may not see regular playing time with the Twins trying to find at-bats for four outfielders and Danny Santana as a utility player with Eddie Rosario back in the majors. Hopefully the Twins will give Buxton regular playing time as he had one of his best games Tuesday.
