Ned is a good mgr. to work up a young team. He is pretty average in managing and actually looked like a bullpen wizard this year because of the luxuries that davis and holland give him. I don't even think Davis was the wrong move last night. The guy has been a beast and we had to get out of that inning. Some little crap for the white sox decided to crap on the royals and hand the division to detroit like a total bozo, that's all.
However, in pressure situations Ned loses his crap. If the Glass family lets him and Dayton stick around after the Royals miss the playoffs, then they are failures too.
