What opinion will fans have of Ned Yost in 2016?

The Royals were just at .500 for the first time since July 23, 2014, when they moved to 50-50, before making a run to 74-61 by the end of August. Anyone worried yet?

Have no fear. The Royals 4-3 comeback victory last night over the Twins ensured that they wouldn’t fall below .500.

Either way, three games are hardly a large enough sample size to determine anything of substance, but the Royals made it through the celebratory phase of the season with no catastrophes. It’s time to play ball.

Even in regards to last night, winning makes people forget. Fans were ready to panic about Soria and the offense before the Royals rallied, won, and that was all forgotten.

Remember that 2014 season when many fans were calling for Ned Yost’s job? He’s largely considered the hero now, but some of us are still not willing to give him all the credit for a World Series win.
