Raisel Iglesias losing manager's confidence?
by Connor Rooney | Braves Correspondent | Sun, Sep 1st 8:34am EDT
Raisel Iglesias (2-11) blew the save and took the loss in game two of Saturday's double header against the Cardinals, allowing all three batters he faced to reach base. After the game, manager David Bell said that the Reds need to make sure Iglesias doesn't lose his confidence "no matter what situation he is pitching in." (Bobby Nightengale on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Iglesias now has two blown saves and three losses on the Reds' current road trip. His 11 losses is the most for a reliever in club history. Bell has stuck by Iglesias all year, and his statements after the game don't necessarily indicate that a change is coming. But, it's becoming increasingly difficult to justify keeping Iglesias in the closer's role.
