Byron Buxton, the Twins All-Star center fielder, has been a key player for the team since his debut in June 2015. He has played his 10th Opening Day game with the team and will reach the age of 10 years of service time in April. Buxton has been praised by teammates Harrison Bader and other players for his well-rounded skillset, including Aaron Judge, Paul Goldschmidt, and Nolan Arenado. Despite injuries, Buxton's stardom has limited his appeal due to his dedication to baseball. He started running as a child and ran five miles daily through a trail in his neighborhood before high school, which he shortened to two miles once in high school.
