Ned is back at it

Is Ned Yost trying to give us a reason to fire/hate him? Here is his quote today in a story about new closer Eric Gagne:

"You have to understand the psyche of a closing pitcher," Yost said. "They are creatures of their routine and he was totally thrown out of his routine when he went to Boston. We feel he'll be a big pickup.

"We're a young team and it's of the utmost importance that you have a solid closer. There is nothing more demoralizing than losing games late."



Yes, Ned, we are the ones who have to understand. We are not the ones who kicked 15 games last year because of mismanaging the pitching staff. It good to know we agree that there is nothing more demoralizing, now if you could just go about making sure it doesn't happen, that would be great.
