Watching the Reds get no-hit by Blake Snell and fall back into last place, I had a thought...
Remember way back in 2023 when the Reds were in 1st place at the trade deadline and they said "we aren't going to be buyers, this is just a freebie season, we'll just win next year with our young talent getting better!" and then went 23-31 to finish the season?
Sure glad we didn't try to win when we could, and instead held onto valuable prospects like Noelvi Marte or Connor Phillips.
