Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (back, ribs) told reporters that he hopes to play against the Royals on Wednesday afternoon.
Fantasy Impact
Buxton left Tuesday's game after crashing into the outfield wall and is dealing with a sore back and a rib contusion. Despite Buxton's optimism, it wouldn't be a surprise to see the team hold him out of Wednesday's game with a Thursday off-day looming.
