Groove or on top of a batten? How is it attached to the sides? In
either case, how much do the sides extend below the bottom?

Grooves in the sides and front. The groves extend about 1/2" below
the bottom panel. The bottom panel is now kind of bowl shaped,
sagging
left
to right as well as front to back.

Simplest fix is 3 screws through the bottom into the back. Put one
in the center first, then one more on each side halfway between
center and side. That should fix the sag in both directions; if not,
slack off the last two, add another one (two more total) between
them and center, then tighten the loosened one.

Ah, if it were only that simple. To repeat what I just posted in
response to dpb's post...

I clamped the bottom of the drawers to the back of box in three spots,
completely closing the gap along the back. The front and sides of the
bottoms are fully seated in the grooves of the box. I placed a 36"
straight edge across the bottom of the interior of the drawers and
measured the gap between the straight edge and the bottom of the
drawer
at the center of the bottom.

3/8" on one drawer, 1/2" on the other.

And what happens if you push up on the bottom while it is clamped? Sag
disappear? If so, then either the bottom isn't fully seated in the grooves
or the grooves are too big. If not, try loosening the clamps THEN pushing.
