The Milwaukee Brewers today announced that Ned Yost has been dismissed from his position as manager of the Club.
“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,” GM Doug 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.
