Ned Yost is totally owned by the players

I was wrong again.

Prince Fielder and Ryan Braun asked Yost if they could switch spots in the order, and he did it.

Proud of you, Ned. Though I notice you changed your tone a little. What you called a rash decision a few days ago is now …

“It’s not a major deal in the context of what we’re trying to do,” he said. “Failed experiment? I don’t buy it. It’s just a switch. They’re staying in the two premier hitting spots in the lineup.

Anyway, I’m sure it had a big effect. I’m sure those two started hitting immediately and didn’t go a combined 1-for-9 or anything.
