Kenny has moles in warehouse and Roch obviously has connections. Dan C has been good lately with some scoops. 

But Roch cant break a story without permission.

I think it was Caleb Joseph's little 'outburst' that doomed him.

Hopefully it was handled professionally on both sides.

Would Buck take a managing  job with the Angel's or Twins? Boswell keeps pushing Buck for the Nationals job but dont see that happening. 

I think he'll be back, but he may take a break for a year or so. And that's probably a good move. Make some TV money, get recharged a bit.

So...is Buck the one talking with Ken?

I understand why they did this, but you shouldn't make a move unless you think you will definitively improve the position. I'm not convinced they will do that.

Sources say Buck was gifted several cases of leftover Snowwalter Snow Globes as a partying gift rrrr parting gift.

Glad to see this change.  Now get rid of Brady too, take the leash off of Dan, and we can start moving forward

Probably this.  He works for MASN and is in effect a team employee.

Someone in the Orioles should make an announcement soon and thank Buck for turning around a morbid franchise. The Angelos boys preferably..

Buck's contract was over this year.   There's no guarantee that he wanted to return.

Honestly I would rather have heard about Brady being let go first before any other moves.  But as long as he is in the Angelos family good graces...

Also true. Which is why saying he was "fired" is pretty misleading.

I don't see why Brady cannot come back and play.Can be player,manager,GM and trainer.
