The pitching ignoring actually began after we traded for Nate in the summer of 2018 (under DD.) Sure, DD extended Sale & Nate (not the best of moves, in hindsight,) but he added no other pitchers after Nate. After 2019, we let Kimbrel & Kelly (and PomPom) go without replacing them. To me, that was the start of ignoring, and it showed, immediately.
