Buxton will be in the Majors before he's 20. Got a chance to watch him play and he is by far one of the best athletes Ive seen in the past 5 years.

Glad our vacation was 2 weeks ago and we were able to swing through Cedar Rapids to watch him play against Carlos Correa

I am glad they are moving these guys through the system. Maybe Buxton and Sano will start at the same level next year.

Dang!!!!!!!!! I know he should be promoted but I was going to Cedar Rapids next week!
Me too. I think the 5th is Free Baseball Card Day. Last time I went to one of those my wife had free tickets and free beer vouchers through her work. Sadly it was really hot that day and I drank too many free beers and didn't feel like getting any autos....But we did leave with 2 sets of these, one of which is still unopened. Not a bad haul for enduring few hours of free baseball and beer

Damn...I was hoping to get down to Cedar Rapids some time this summer to see him. Oh well, glad he's moving up for the Twins!

I saw one top prospect list (updated) who thought he was the number one prospect in MiLB. Agree?

I think a case can still be made that Taveras is number one.

Either way, as a Cub fan I love our hitting talent in our farm system, but the Twins may have us beat. It'll be interesting seeing a lineup hitting around Mauer that consists of Buxton, Sano, Arcia and Rosario.

So basically you are saying he will be in the Big leagues this year?
