BUCK SHOWALTER RUMORS

Straight up Crushing ... Orioles Take Series from the Yankees...

Yes, the Orioles have struggled in the past two weeks. They will probably struggle again at some point in 2013; however, they have shown themselves to be incredibly resilient. Until Buck Showalter arrived, this team would have been stymied by it all and gone into a swoon that they could not have dug out of. Times are different, and this squad can pull it all together and...

The Orioles and Holding Runners: Showalter’s Gambit

The Baltimore manager has his first baseman, Chris Davis, playing a few steps off the bag when holding runners. Not just the slow-of-foot — all runners, all the time. The situation doesn’t matter. According to Orioles...
