Around The Horn w BP

It’s Official–Buck and Duquette are No Longer with the O’s. 47-115 leaves no defense for either. Mistake after mistake led to this happening but I believe the biggest of all was the 7 year $161 million contract to Chris Davis. It along with a few other mistakes decimated this team. The bullet must be bit on Davis’ contract, so the new leaders get a fresh start. To no surprise Brady remains and will help lead the O’s back, hopefully. IMO Buck for the most part had a great run run here. I will miss him. However not bringing in Britton in the wild card game game against Toronto and failure to remove Manny from a game earlier this year when he failed to run out a double play ground ball stick in my mind. Like most managers or Coaches who stick around for 9 years, the message gets stale. Yes, I am worried about who replaces Buck. As for Duquette, Angelos should have just let him go when he wanted the Toronto job. It was clear he didn’t want to be here and perhaps it effected many of his moves. This era of leadership is gone, a nice run with a horrific ending.

HRs by Judge and 1 by Stanton led the Yankees to 7-2 wild card win vs the A’s. Happ vs Sale in game 1 on Friday. Red Sox in 4. Zach Britton gave up the 2 A’s run on a Homer by Khris Davis.

Great season opener from Caps, as they beat up on Boston 7-0. Tom Wilson must serve a 20 game suspension for a cheap hit in an exhibition game. Exhibition game–this guy plays for keeps. Not too smart though.

Ravens are a 3 point favorite over Cleveland on Sunday.

Bama Coach Nick Saban is complaining about the lack of students attending home games. Guess he has to find something to be upset about.
