David Bell is now facing his biggest test as Reds manager.
Has to find a way to get the team on track quickly. They were expected to win, and he still has a chance.
Should he up the sense of urgency? Or, get the players more relaxed, avoid pressing? Or make some change in lineup, rotation, or bullpen usage?
This is how a manager earns his stripes. We’ll see if he can do it. Team is basically healthy. This is his moment, sink or swim.
