Ned Yost is just Daytons pawn. No more no less. Hard to blame Ned. Sure, many ppl on this board could even do a better job than him (as you can see I dont value MLB managers). But, the Royals would still suck with or without Ned. Hosmer and Moose dont suck because of Ned. They just might not be very good. A good manager comoared to a bad manager in MLB is woth like 4 wins max.

But.. on the other hand, we used to think Gordon was a bust too. |

From pulling Shields to pinch hitting a guy who hasn't seen one pitch over Tejada to tolerating this stupid hand gesturing this team does every time they get a hit.... Not to mention moving your best leadoff hitter out of the leadoff spot, mis-managing running situations on the bases and some stupid bullpen moves. |

Do you think that made Moose press some when it counted? Do you think it ****ed with his head when he got moved further and further down? The starting day lineup should have had Cain in the #3 spot and Butler in the #4. Ned does not know how to manage a lineup, obviously. |

It is more so the attitude of the team that lets me know Ned isn't leading anything. No one acts like they give a shit and they continue to laugh and joke all the way though these losing game. This season does not rest on Ned's shoulders squarely though. Moose and Hoz aren't busts yet but their beyond pitiful play has to be the result of ALL coaches not being able to develop guys. And why is that? I really don't know. Those two don't have to be all-stars but they have to be serviceable, and right now they aren't even that, which rests on coaching to a degree because I refuse to believe both of them are busts. Nothing in their approaches seems to change, they continue to do the same approach at the plate with the same piss poor outcome. That is coaching. It isn't all Ned but being the "head" coach, the whole environment has to change with him leading. He isn't.
That being said, bringing in someone knew likely won't help. ![]() |

I get that coaches don't have as much impact as we think...but am I wrong for thinking this team would have been better off with Terry Francona?

Anyways, Moore needs to get the **** out. While he brought in some good talent, the prospects don't seem to be producing and he insists on making the Royals the Kansas City Braves, except with players past their prime and a manager who did nothing in Milwaukee or do anything of note in Atlanta. |

When they were winning, I LOVED that little bit of swagger. It's something we haven't seen in a long time.
