Start it easy enough with Garrett strikes again, or Garrett stinks again.
Reds are trying to win Phillies series Wednesday June 2nd. Reds clobbered Phillies Monday, but Phillies beat the heck out of Reds Tuesday.
Garrett came in middle relief and gave up 4 earned runs in 1 inning pitched. Forget about Garrett as a Closer, he can't even pitch middle relief. He has been awful all 2021. He had injuries between his good years and this year, so maybe he never really came back from those injuries, because he is nothing close to what he use to be. This happens to many relievers, they have a couple good years and that's it. I think they pitch their arms off pitching so many games in a year. I think that's what happened to Tom Hall, Rob Dibble and many others. Rob Dibble was great for a couple years, and then overnight he was batting practice. There must be only so many pitches in the human arm. Some relievers have long careers, but most have short careers. Garrett is now serving up batting practice every game. The relievers that have long great careers are freaks of nature, because it seems most relievers have shorts careers from over work. Probably never sign a reliever to a long term contract of many years.
Castellano hit streak is at 18 games
Reds still have chance to win this series with Phillies on Wednesday.
WRONG : Game postponed to June 28th due to RAIN. This game called off around 10:30 AM, so must be a lot of rain coming.
So for now the Reds vs Phillies is a split series, to be continued June 28th. Reds next game is Thursday in St Louis.
