You be the judge. For the past 5 years Ned Yost has managed the Milwaukee Brewers to an incredible 357/423 record. That's a .458 winning percentage. In what has to be his best team yet, Yost has somehow found a way to take them on their regular 2nd half slide. Some argue it's not Yost and that the players need to perform. Well, what do you think? Is it Yost or the players. Is it the players fault when they are continually put in situations where they are almost sure to fail?
Would you have:
Pulled Jeff Suppan against the Cubs?
Let Kevin Mench bat with the bases loaded agains the Right handed Dempster?
Stayed with Capuano?
Started with Parra in the bullpen?
Add your own. I'm just fed up. This team is loaded with talent and yet they find themselves a game below .500 and in 2nd place. Something has to give.

I have also struggled with love and hate feelings for Ned Yost. On one hand, he has coached the team to the first winning season in 11 years. And Antonasio has faith in Yost's abilites. However, I do not understand Yost's loyalty to Chris Capuano. His entire approach to pitching stinks. The Brewers consistently blew games in the 7th inning last season. So is it the Pitching Coach's problem? The Pitchers themselves? Or Yost? I would be open seeing what happens next season...especially if the Brewers lose some of their star players. I realize my blog is late in coming....I haven't been on In Circle in awhile, sorry Mark!
