I believe management is saying that they put the team in contention by spending big cash, moreso than the coach doing anything.
Maybe, but they're still spending less than the Dodgers, Cubs, Cardinals, Mets and Phillies... all teams the Brewers are right there contending with. Ned Yost wasn't the reason the Brewers were collapsing, he took the sword for it.
I'm not at all advocating the move. I think it was absolutely stupid. The idea that this will get the players more motivated to win is absurd.That's probably true, but this is a truly bizarre time to fire a manager unless he did something very, very bad.
