You'll have an article. Hopefully the O's have a new GM

 

He's replaceable. There are options who I like, who would be interested in the position... but you might not necessarily do better, and you could absolutely do worse.

Do you think there's any actual chance of this happening?

I really hope so. Ill admit he's handcuffed working for PA but I also believe he had been very bad constructing this roster since his flirtation with Toronto

That much is clear, but I don't see any chance at that going down.

Let's get one thing straight. Buck isn't perfect but he's much better at his job than DD is at his. He's better at DDs job than DD.

Yeah. Buck isn't a better manager than DD is GM?? Go ahead I dare you to disagree Shackleford. And respond to the damn question. Don't do a Shackleford dance

A. You never know with Shack.

B. He should highlight the specific part of the post he's objecting to

I do think many fans lack perspective as they get so wrapped up in their own teams affairs.

I also don't think a legit and fair conversation about DD can occur without all parties acknowledging that Buck has a lot of influence.

That makes it harder to judge Duq.

U just have to agree with Shack. Do we refer to Mike as Shack Jr or Shack as Weber Sr?

Yep. Buck and PA. No wonder Duquette wanted out. On the other hand  things have worked fairly well imo.

Buck should have more influence. Let the chef buy the groceries

Eh, based on what we've been able to glean from the outside looking in, I don't think that's a good idea.
