Let this be a disclaimer that I do not suggest Ned Yost should be let go. Even after a lackluster 7-12 start for the KC Royals, Ned Yost has little blame. The disappointing performances of the lineup and bullpen have led to this abysmal start.
This season could be Yost’s last run with this team, being 61 years old, along with a high number of high-profile free agents possibly leaving. Ned Yost will likely leave the KC Royals on his own terms.
With that, let’s get to possible candidates the KC Royals could consider in the near future.
