Brewers manager Ned Yost fired!

[PierBridge]

WOW!

[Gary Crichton]

What did you expect. They can make anything happen.

He must have ticked them off somehow.

G.C.

[PierBridge]

To me it's insane he built them into a decent team improving each year at the helm.

12 games to go and they fire him I don't care how bad he was that's just NUTS!

[knoppers]

the team got swept by philly to tie for the wild card spot, they are still in the race, very strange.

[zamboni]

Maybe those foam rubber cheese things they put on their heads are a little too tight.

[Cooter]

I have no problem seeing him getting canned but don't like the timing - do it soon after the break or after the seasons over. The crew has and still makes too many 'little league' mistakes, both by the players and coaches. And mistakes by players need to be addressed and fixed by coaches. Mistakes by coaches need the attention of higher management, which is what just happened. It will be a shame if they don't make the playoffs.

2 months too late.

You follow the Brew Crew much closer then we do and I know you and others have had concerns with his managing in the past and particularly this year but the timing is strange.

Hopefully it lites a fire and the Brew Crew can turn it around here quickly!

[bassNspear]

i dont understand this at all either. Did anyone really hear the real story.

He built them into a decent team? He was the manager, not the GM. Melvin, Attanasio, and Zduriencik are the ones responsible for building the team.

And Flatlander is probably right, 2 months too late.

Molded would have been a better term.

As long the guys you mentioned above are responsible for BUILDING this halfway decent team maybe they should be the ones fired for another late season collaspe by the the PLAYERS they BUILT or is YOST the one getting shellacked on the feild gain?

[snoozebutton]

The feeling is that there's a lot more talent on the field than what they're showing right now and that boils down to the manager not doing all he can to motivate them. Who knows, maybe Melvin's the next one to go but for now it was a move to shake things up and the manager is the first one you look to.

[PierBridge]

Ain't that the truth!

Plus a lot of his on feild decisions have been suspect from what my limited info is telling me?

[blue_healer_guy]

Thats why Gardy will be here forever, like Kelly. No matter how the game is managed, the Polhads will keep him.

[PierBridge]

Whatever!
