The dish rack brackets at the bottom of the uprights are stressed to the point of often breaking. There are replacements here on Thingiverse but these, too, break because of the limitations of 3D printed parts.
This part helps support uprights in the proper and stiffened position, thereby taking stress off the lower plastic brackets.
Printed at 40% in ABS. No supports necessary. Post ops might include tuning the gap for the snap fit. Actually, though the holes are out at 2 degrees to roughly match the uprights in natural position, the uprights can flex enough so one could just slide the brace down over the top if the snap fit was to tight.
The OpenScad file is included if you find the need to play with dimensions for your case.
