He was 10-9 vs Ned and was outscored 81-83. Yeah, totally outclassed him head to head. Good one.

I still think the "more homeruns" thing came from ownership and Dayton and Ned had to be the face of it.

And... F*** him for not bringing cheerleaders to the sport... Had he, I might have gone more!

Pulled all the right moves last night. Unfortunately the city was asleep so they'll continue thinking the manager is why we won't win 90+ and not the fact our team has like 1 home run in the past 10 games

I got ridiculed for last week for sticking up for Ned Yost in one of the game threads.

That's why I don't post in them much anymore. Some of the Royals fans on this board don't know shit and it's annoying to have to deal with them.

Ignore lists are great.

Yes, Wade Davis was the right move in a tie game with the bases loaded and one out. Give me a ****ing break. He hung a couple that could've screwed us.

The Mariners bailed Ned out by being more incompetent offensively than we are.

The feeling is mutual.

Eh. He was good. No reason to try to take that away from him.

Interesting. First winning season in 10 years. You have to go back another 10 years before that. You guys are talking like they should have won the whole thing. They had 2 starting pitchers with an ERA sub 4.0. Pretty good pen which overall makes the club first in runs against in the AL, but the teams ahead in your division are 2 and 3. They had to move 36 year old Bruce Chen from the pen despite that he had an ERA around 2.0 at the time. Your winningest pitcher is giving up more than 10 hits/9 inn.

One player with 20 home runs who also has 135 Ks. You have one starter with a SLG over .450 and that is just barely. 11th in the AL in runs. 2B was a disaster zone until you traded for one in mid August.

Sounds like he was making chicken salad with chicken shit.

So when we win, the other team bails Ned out. When we lose, it was Ned.

No, not at all. As you see, I specifically highlighted why I think the way I do.

I don't think in pure generalities, like your post would imply. Maybe you do:shrug:.

He was good enough to win. But the call was not the right one in the moment. I would've liked to see Holland.

And I don't feel this way solely because of last night.
