Go ahead, fire him. He was only one of the best mangers this year..


I've been licking my chops all day at the discussions on ESPN saying it's Bucks fault rofl... I would go from esthetic to ecstatic if he was a Brave.

He's a great manager but man that was the dumbest decision I've ever seen.

It might not have been a good call on his part, but without him they aren't even in the playoffs.

I guess if you want to go back to not even breaking .500 every season, yeah, you get rid of Showalter. I like watching the O's compete for the postseason every year though, so I like Showalter.

Buck had a bad game. He should never have had Ublado in there, and he probably shouldn't have Jones lead-off. However, O's were hitless for 6 innings, so it's not like that pitching change alone kept them from winning; they could have been hitless for 2 more Britton innings too. Plus Borne had a bad drop in the outfield that led to a run. It's not like Buck can make the players hit and field better (though we should look into a new hitting coach).

I just look at as Buck had a bad game, which even the players do from time to time, as most of them did this game at the plate.
