Byron Buxton Sitting on Sunday
Byron Buxton (side) will take a seat on Sunday against the Washington Nationals. Harrison Bader will take over in center field and bat eighth versus right-hander Jake Irvin. Buxton left Saturday's game early with soreness in his left side, and he has since undergone imaging. There's no word on whether he'll require a stint on the 10-day injured list. Injuries have haunted Buxton throughout his career, but the 31-year-old has mostly stayed healthy this season and offered tremendous production. He earned his second All-Star invitation and has slashed .282/.343/.561 with 23 homers, 59 RBI, 68 runs scored, and 17 stolen bases in 364 plate appearances.
