Do we have any hope Lerner sells? He is an awful owner.
Dusty and Showalter is a perfect comparison. Two of the best during the regular season.
I like Dusty much more in the playoffs. Buck refused to pitch arguably the best pitcher in the game During a wild card game (Britton). Then pitched Ubaldo Jimenez with the season on the Line. Buck gets too cute. Dusty wouldn't dare do something so stupid.
Edit: it's late and was typing on my phone. I did want to clarify this. I think Dusty is better than Buck as a game manager and I would take him over Buck in the playoffs. Having said that Buck is clearly bridging his way to a FO job and that is where he has a lot of skill left to be utilized. His attention to detail will make a valuable FO asset for a franchise for years to come.
Both Buck and Baker are great and perhaps their legacy isn't finished yet. Based on the Orioles pitching this season though, Buck's window just slammed shut
