This man is unstoppable in the playoffs! Who knew?

Aside from the Ventura for Shields move in the Oakland game I think he has really done well in the playoffs

Who knew what would happen when players started playing to their potential!!!

good thing Milwaukee fired him before the playoffs...

JFC, Ventura threw 3 pitches in that game. Don't be an idiot.

Solid take.

Ned quit being Ned. Finally quite putting Infante at 2 because he can bunt. Ned finally got a quick hook for the starters instead of waiting until the blow up or blow the lead, he also got away from only pitching guys in certain innings. He's been very good outside the Ventura mess.

It's so damn stupid, but people cling to all sorts of baseball myths. The main one being this very thread itself

Every baseball manager and every football coach makes thousands of decisions, and it's impossible for every decision to work. But it's ridiculously easy for people to jump on the Internet and bash the guy who makes the decisions.

Some of the people on this site would crucify Vince Lombardi if he were coaching their football team, and they'd lynch Whitey Herzog if he were managing their baseball team.

Ned Yost is obviously a ****ing genius when it comes to developing young players into productive players, and he is obviously a ****ing genius at managing a bullpen. It helped that the 3 guys he put into his 7-8-9 rotation turned out to be superhumans, but he helped make them that way.

He got this team to the World Series. They didn't get there on their own, "in spite of him".

Ned Yost is what his record says he is. Right now he's the first manager in history to win his first 8 postseason games.

As Nathan hale once said "I only regret that I only have but one rep to give for this post"


Jeez I just broke out Nathan Hale

Benedick Arnold planet.

:LOL:

All you Youst haters should be watching our dumbass manager tonight. It will make you feel good about your manager.

For those who think the Ned of the last few weeks was the Ned we were critical of, you're nuts.

That being said, the current Ned is awesome. He made a mistake in the WC game, the players bailed him out (thank God), and since then he's been very level-headed.

THAT I will admit to.. I hope he stays the new Ned...

Exactly. It's almost if after the Ventura debacle Yost became a different guy. I wonder if DM or someone else is actually calling the shots now.

This is not true. I singlehandedly ruined Todd Marinovich's career.
