Why no love for Travis Buck...sure, he's had his cold spots like a lot of players thus far, but he has 3 HRs and has been somewhat impressive for a rookie ...
Baseball America has him as the A's #1 prospect and he's getting good playing time...I think he'll be a fulltime starter soon.
I guess he's a poor man's Pence.
thoughts?

He seems like a good player from what I've seen. Deeper leagues he could be money.

I'm too lazy to make a sig at the moment

I am actually pretty high on this kid. I had him in my 40 prospects, which is higher than any other list that i saw.

His main fault to me is that he's a hitting prospect in the A's organization.
If he was a pitcher in the A's organization it would be a different story.

i love this kid. not so much his delicate wrists. last night he hit a game-tying homer. today he's sitting out with sore wrists. ugh.

nobody projected him having any more upside than Andre Ethier, half a month of ab won't change my mind.
Are you interested in joining a 28 teams dynasty league? If so, PM me.
