Byron Buxton is having the best season of his career, with an All-Star selection after hitting .289/.351/.574 with 21 homers and 17 steals. Despite team struggles and payroll issues, he firmly intends to remain with the Twins, citing a no-trade clause. Buxton expressed his love for the city of Minnesota, claiming it as home, and emphasized his reluctance to play for any other team. His current seven-year, $100MM contract reflects his exceptional talent, although injury concerns have limited his playtime through the seasons.
"I've got a no-trade clause. I'm a Minnesota Twin for the rest of my life. That's the best feeling in the world, knowing when I walk into the clubhouse every day, it's going to say Twins."
"I love Minnesota - that's home. I don't want to play anywhere else. The team, the people, the city - they made me who I am and made me a part of it there."
