why is showalter still the orioles manager?
Angelos is too cheap to fire him before his contract ends.

All the more reason to use him. Top of the lineup coming up, why go to Ubaldo who struggles early in games to face the heart of the order? You use Britton there every time. The whole "saves" thing is garbage and I'd be pissed if I was the Os.
Worked out perfectly.Better to save him if they get the lead the next inning. Yes that's a big IF as we saw last night but Showalter even said he wanted to use some of his other options first and "save" him.

Showalter goes nowhere. I don't even want to imagine O's without him. That terrible decision doesn't change the truth: he's top 5 manager in the game, 5 winning seasons in row with that joke of starting pitching and etc.
That he is a top 5 manager in baseball? He just got bodied by John Gibbons. Sorry I am not buying the "genius" of Buck Showalter.What part of that is wrong?
There's a legitimate argument he has been top 5 in his stint with the O's. Using one game and essentially one poor decision to discredit the rest of his tenure isn't fair.That he is a top 5 manager in baseball? He just got bodied by John Gibbons.

I don't get what's funny about it, either. But that's one message that should've been sent to the residents of Vancouver in June of 2011.

One game cannot erase what he did in last five seasons with O's bullpen. It was poor decision but that doesn't make him average. Orioles gave up something like two runs in extra innings all season.I'm not trying to say he is a bad manager....I just can't help but role my eyes at the genius narrative that was going around before the game and in general really. He is an average manager. Just like John Gibbons is an average manager. If he was really a "genius" or a top 5 manager in baseball he doesn't have a night like he did last night. You butcher the single most important game of the season that is what people will remember.

Ah yes, my favourite VPOBO/manager in the game.Sabean is the executive vice president of baseball operations of the San Francisco Giants, unless he meant Nick Saban the football coach.
Either of which would have brought Britton into that game last night
The police claim to have footage of it being a woman, but:
?
Love the fact that it was a media guy tossed the beer can at the Birds
