Twins' Byron Buxton (ribs) does not have a fracture
Minnesota Twins center fielder Byron Buxton received test results that his injured ribs are not fractured.
What It Means:
Buxton left last week's Wild Card game due to a rib injury, and it was initially through that his ribs were fractured. With the new diagnosis, Buxton is not expected to miss anytime at the beginning of next season.
Buxton finished the season with 16 home runs, 51 RBI and a .253 average over 462 plate appearances this season.
