Friday Bird Droppings: Where Buck Showalter could soon be back in baseball

Good morning, Camden Chatters.

Hey, remember Buck Showalter? Used to manage the Orioles for a while? One of the most popular figures in recent O’s history? Led the team back to postseason glory after 14 seasons of losing? Then had kind of a dismal end to his Baltimore career? Yeah, that guy.

After the O’s dismissed Buck at the end of a franchise-worst 47-115 season in 2018, he stepped away from the diamond in 2019, peeking his head in only to do a bit of analyst work for the Yankees on YES. Now, though, Showalter’s name has popped up in connection with several of the vacant managerial seats around baseball.
