Now he even said, He's surrounded by so much talent, that it would almost be impossible NOT to suceed. His patience is almost maddening, but it has worked.
I would be lying if I said I was a supporter of his when last season started, but now I think he may have something, definately the players support, and that's good enough. |

That's the difference between division champ and wild card a lot of years, or wild card and playing golf.

Escobar: (Former Brewer prospect) Easily could have been dumped years ago. Remember how much shit Yost used to take for not pinch hitting for him in late innings back in the day? He always said that he needed to learn how to do it. Cain: (Former Brewer prospect). Dude was completely raw and injury prone. Easily could have been dumped years ago. Gordon: Could have been dumped years ago. He sucked for years. Perez: Wasn't even a good prospect. Yost said from day one that he could be a Hall of Famer. The guy knows his shit. He's made Dayton Moore look good just as much as Dayton's made him look good.

People that consider winning a two game series a sweep deserve AIDS.

1) Pitch counts are important. Listen to the trainers, the doctors, and don't overwork or hurt your pitchers. Ned has been excellent at this, almost to a fault. Way too many of our prior managers have possibly ruined arms by overworking them. 2) Realize that you are managing in the American League, which means do not bunt or steal too much. Ned passes. (note: this has changed a bit, since sabermetrics have determined that with the decline of runs, "small ball" is now more relevant than before, but there's still a point where you can overdo it) Thats it, thats all I ask of my manager. You do that, I'm cool, I don't care about lineups much, other than the L/R/L/R order can be helpful too. Ned was the first manager in a very long time which surpassed my very low bar of expectations for a manager.
