I refuse to believe Buck ever used that expression. 

Oh he definitely used it, repeatedly. He seemed to think it was funny, but like I said earlier in this thread, I was shocked.

I'm still in disbelief that Showalter kept using that phrase.

Apparently he discussed it with the Mets too. https://reddit.com/r/NewYorkMets/s/37lO0PdMOc

And that would be great.  I was just saying there was not much time for that between when he was let go by MIA, and his 1st game with us today.  Hopefully he can gain more confidence and help us down the stretch.  I wasn't in favor of the move, but like I said, I'd be glad to be wrong.

Sometimes coming "home" can make a big difference. I noticed some very long hugs in the dugout after his half-inning of work.

Haha Don't want to think about that one at all.

You don’t have too, but his affinity for being in the buff in the locker room was the source of the nickname.

It is kind of odd he would publically use it over and over.   Kind of juvenille but funny I guess.

That is how he got the nick name Buck?  For being buck naked?  Holy shit that is hilarious.

I tried to think of what this looks like and all I could think of was an orthopedic surgeon.
