P1 by manny59 on Comment 4 comments

Im a huge A's fan and have been a huge Travis Buck fan since we drafted him.

I really got excited last year when he was called up and he looked amazing on the field but he was always day to day with his wrist problems.

I really want to get a deeper look (past and future)into Travis Buck as I am semi new to fantasy baseball

any info would be much appreciated

past
Past? I watched him for three years at ASU so what you want to know? I've also talked with him a half dozen times and he's a pretty cool kid

he can really hit
seems like he's always squaring up the bat really well. i think he'll hit .300 during his peak with about 20 HR (if he can stay healthy). in the outfield, he's got a decent arm, so-so range. he's pretty average for a corner guy.

cf?
i thought the A's were moving him to CF? must have better than avg range at a corner if they're thinking of doing that.

more broadly, i love Buck, too -- just a pure hitter, I think he'll be terrific.

Can he be better than Kotsay?
I am hoping so..guy seems to have the tools but seems a bit fragile.
