If you are looking for the sunny side of things out of the Land dishes on Saturday, well, the David Wright The ceremony was delicious, Brooks Raley Launched for the first time since April 2024 and was very clear, and the dishes have at least put a jerk in the ninth round, although only “what if?” variety.
Beyond that, however, the 5-2 defeat against the Reds was mainly filled with unpleasant reminders of the weaknesses of the dishes, also known as the fodder for David Stearns“List of trade tasks.
Detal starter Clay Holmes I had only 16 withdrawals, which means that their besieged listed enclosure had another long day of work. The readers have excelled, launching 3.2 -sleeves aimlessly, but the recurring theme which they had to obtain bushels of withdrawals every day is not durable. The dishes need help with the emergency closure. Maybe also in rotation.
And there were 1 for 10 with runners in the notation position and left 11 men on the basis – it is the 10th time that they left 11 or more this season, the sixth in the majors. Maybe they also need an offensive shock.
Then there were sloppy moments – a buttock pickoff by Luis Torrens This led to a Reds race, a bad second relay Ronny Mauricio This kept a Reds rally alive. Talk about bad funds.
Brandon Nimmo, Who played with Wright, admitted that it was a disappointment not to play with crisp one day Wright, which he counts as one of his mentors, was honored.
“Certainly disappointing to lose day,” said Nimmo, who added that it did not make the ceremony less special. Nimmo admitted to having “tried to retain tears”.
“You could see how much fans appreciate everything he has done,” said Nimmo.
The problem was, once the match was at the start and that the dishes wasted an advance of 2-0 at the start, these fans, a closed window crowds of 42,605, turned their attention to the gaps of the food. They became restless as the dishes left the runners. They have also hooked from time to time.
The dishes now have 55-44, but on June 12, their record was 45-24. Their pitching discoveries under the radar were widely celebrated and they were considered one of the best teams in baseball. They have been 10-20 since then, the lower levels of the lift enclosure is a rotating door and they still have not corrected the strike with RISP – they ranked 27th in MLB to .230 after the loss.
Nimmo said there was a daily emergency, as well as knowledge that losses and Saturdays should also be released.
“The guys who were here last year know that we made the playoffs of a match, so a match can decide if we enter the playoffs or if we do not do it,” said Nimmo. “Every day there is an emergency to try to win and try to pass.”
And, to be fair, the dishes seemed to be urgent in the ninth. They put the first two runners and Juan Soto Hit a deep will to the right that buzzed the fans. It seemed enough to be a huge highlight during a big day of food – Sny cameras caught Wright with a huge smile, leaning down to watch the flight of the ball. But Soto’s shot is curved. He then struck a check on check and their rally attempt finally dropped.
“Obviously, Juan came a few feet to equalize the game,” said Nimmo. “I thought he had a quality base. If we continue to pressure, it will happen. It will happen. We must simply continue to put pressure on ourselves.”
And get more length from their beginners. Holmes admitted: “If I could finish the sixth, it would put the team in a much better position to win this match.” Carlos Mendoza Said Holmes had given the Mits a chance, but the Reds had made him work very hard one day when his sweeper was not effective.
Raley was great – he struck Elly de la Cruz And TJ Friedl in his impeccable sleeve. “Quite well,” said Mendoza. “Typical Brooks Raley. It was good to see him again there.”
Raley should help the pen. The dishes, however, need more than its return.
And, even by a beautiful day in the history of the food, there have been a lot of reminders.
