MILWAUKEE -- The Milwaukee Brewers today announced that Ned Yost has been dismissed from his position as manager of the Club. The announcement was made by Brewers Executive Vice President and General Manager, Doug Melvin.
"This was a very difficult move to make, and we appreciate all of the work that Ned has done to develop this team into a contender," Melvin said. "In the end, this was a collaborative decision made to put our Club in the best position for the final two weeks of the season."
Dale Sveum, the Brewers third base coach, will take over in an interim role as manager for the remainder of the season. Bench Coach Ted Simmons has been reassigned to an advisory role. Any other coaching changes will be announced later. |

| Jesus, these guys make the Willie Randolph firing look admirable. At least let him finish out the last two weeks of the regular season, and maybe the playoffs. |

If you look at the remaining schedule the Phillies and Astros both have much weaker teams to play yet and are playing better than the Brewers anyhow....it will be a miracle if they make the playoffs...I say why not do it |
