Buxton has been on the 10-day injured list since late August with a hip injury that's bothered him off-and-on throughout the 2026 campaign. It's good news that the surgery is arthroscopic, as that should give Buxton plenty of time to recover before spring training. Buxton will finish this season with a .254/.319/.511 batting line with 25 home runs and seven stolen bases over 93 games. With Buxton officially done for the season, Walker Jenkins will continue to man center field for Minnesota.

Over 0.5 H by situation, each with its own confidence — thin splits read Low, so a small-sample “crushes at home” doesn’t masquerade as an edge.
How this H line has shifted when an injured teammate sits — usage often rises. Descriptive splits from past games, not a forecast.
SF pitching allows 8.3 H per game to hitters (rank 1 = allows the most).

NeutralOver his last 10 games, Byron Buxton has gone over 0.5 H 4 of 10 decided times (40%) — versus 66% across the full season. SF has been a middling matchup for hitters this season, allowing the 12th-most H of 30 teams (8.3 per game). His game-to-game H have been highly variable (σ ≈ 1.0), so short streaks can mislead. These are descriptive stats about past games, not predictions or betting advice.

Hit rate excludes pushes from the denominator. Confidence uses a 95% Wilson interval — a high recent rate on few games still reads as low confidence. Season over rate at this line: 66%.
