Master Wu,
I never said that Yost was a better manager. I think the Rat is one of the best ever. I was just noting the number of wins. However in regards to overall Royals records, Yost had some teams seriously lacking in talent and/or experience in his first few years. It is funny how both locally and nationally he has gone from being dumber than a bag of hammers to someone admired in two years or so. The local sports talk "experts" we're trying to get Yost run out of town about a year ago. "What have you done for me lately" works both ways.

Mister Tim

No problem here

Managers hired to be fired

Look at Joe Torre when he was managing the Cards and when he was managing the Spankees--

Ned ain't a bad manager-- had good teams in Milwaukee but La Russa kicked his butt just about every year and they got tired of being also rans-- they fired him
Look where the Brewers are now

and Ned even said that he could have been fired several times over the last 5 years

KC got some talent and Ned hasn't fried his pitching staff and y'all look to be on a roll

Enjoy the ride
