If we're talking about game decisions, then we're back to, at most, a fraction of one expected loss that you can probably pin on Ned.

Yost may not be "the reason" we have lost some of these games. But he certainly has made some less than good decisions that pushed the odds extremely against us winning. How is that?
I mean, he sends up Moore instead of Tejada today. Would Tejada have come through for sure? We can't say. Does Tejada have a better chance at pinch hitting in a pressure situation than a kid who hasn't seen 1 ML pitch this season? Most certainly.
What did Yost do? Went with the decision that put the odds against us in a major way.
