Buck placed on DL
[EDITOR'S NOTE: I was just about to write something today about how Buck should be the top candidate for rookie of the year in the AL. That should teach me to open my fat mouth. Honestly, Buck has quickly become one of my favorite players much like Rich Harden did a few years ago because they...
