KANSAS CITY -- Ned Yost, former manager of the Milwaukee Brewers, has been hired by the Royals as a special advisor to baseball operations.
Yost, 54, who managed the Brewers from 2003 to Sept. 15, 2008, was dismissed when the club had an 83-67 record and was in second place. During his tenure, Milwaukee had a 457-502 record.
From 1991-2002, Yost was a coach for Atlanta, serving eight years as bullpen coach and four years as third-base coach for Braves manager Bobby Cox. A catcher, Yost played in the Majors in 1980-85 for Milwaukee, Texas and Montreal.
