Former Orioles Manager Buck Showalter Would Be Smart For Houston Or Boston

The Houston Astros are without a manager after they canned A.J. Hinch on Monday following his one-year suspension by the MLB for using technology to steal signs.

The news clouded a day with the College Football Playoff National Championship game and was a sour way to start the week.

With Hinch gone and co-conspirator, Red Sox manager and former Astros’ bench coach, Alex Cora set to receive an even bigger penalty, it looks as though two prominent teams are going to need a new manager.

Buck Showalter fits the bill for whichever team hires a new manager first.
