I was thinking the same thing. Apparently our manager doesnt like to fight for his players. The whole team isnt showing any fight or emotion tonight. It's just sad.

Exactly. This is one of the major reasons I dislike Yost so much. He has no emotion. My dad always calls him "Ned the Dead".

 

It's the same reason I wanted the Packers to fire Mike Sherman.

Prince needs a day off, he has forgotten how to hit

[bucksman4]

For all those folks who think Ned's job is safe for next year, think about this: in a series this big on the road, wouldn't you think he could motivate his team to play hard and win at least ONE of these game in FL? This is pathetic. Really. To go into FL 3 games under .500 and to lay an egg this badly getting swept in a 4-game series? It is flat out embarrasing and he should be accountable for this. Heading into HOU, I could see this winding up as a 7-game losing streak with Oswalt, Clemens, and Pettite scheduled to face us in this series.

[bklynbrewcrew]

Ned needs to go. This team has taken a step backwards this season and Ned is terrible strategically. Time to go!

[brewmann04]

i think ned is a beaten man and so is this ball club 19 games under 500 on the road is enough to make some Changes.

Mark A should not except this.

[PeaveyFury]

wouldn't you think he could motivate his team to play hard and win at least ONE of these game in FL?

 

Motivation only goes so far. The players still have to actually go out there and not suck.

[BrewCrewForever]

Man besides Billy's HR I am not sure who looks worse, Milwaukee or the Packers? This team just cant get anything done on the road.

Ned was basically sleepwalking through this series though.

[AJAY]

Okay, Ned is finally arguing now. At least we know he is still watching.

[TauPentaRei]

Ned fighting looked like he was telling a barista that she made his latte the wrong way

[trwi7]

Ned should've gone on like a 10 minute rant on that @#%$ ump.

[bucksman4]

Yeah, so what's the answer then? Does Ned get a free pass because his player's suck?

[rluzinski]

This is all Jenkin's fault.

 

And Yost.

 

And Sheets, for not being a winner.

[BrewCrewForever]

1-2-3 strikeouts ball game, and we have just gotten swept!

[brewers255]

YAY, we have to face Oswalt, Clemens, Pettite, even tho it doesnt matter.

[bucksman4]

A very befitting end to this game and series with the 3 K's They're more like KO's to our season. Bring up the kids...get them some P.T. and experience for next year.

[brewers255]

I blame the home plate ump. JK

[TauPentaRei]

this is when the trade looks Ugly... when you haven't seen Cordero in a week.

[giffted1]

Clues, I think you have lost your touch

[AJAY]

BOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!

[bklynbrewcrew]

Time to send Nix down and give Tony Jr a chance. He cant suck any more than Nix and Mench do.

That's putting it mildly.

[JohnBriggs12]

Gents, we just got swept by a team with a payroll of $14 million.
