A rough day against Paul Skenes is no cause for alarm, but Shaw has now had three hitless games in a row and has managed just two singles and one walk in 23 plate appearances over his last six games. The Cubs aren’t about to go back to Jon Berti and Vidal Brujan at third, but if Shaw continues to struggle to hit the ball hard, acquiring a stopgap in July might be an option.

He took Ryan Borucki deep in a 1-1 game. The strikeouts keep piling up for Swanson, as two more today brought him up to 83 in 71 games. Still, he has 13 homers, 37 RBI and an adequate .239 average. If he stays healthy, he’s probably on his way to another 3.5-4 WAR season.

The one hit was an Andrew McCutchen homer that would have left only three ballparks. Boyd has turned in four straight quality starts, and he’s 10 for 14 in that category. In three of the four misses, he pitched five or 5 1/3 innings and allowed zero or two runs. Basically, he’s had one bad outing all year, giving up four runs in four innings on May 23, and the Cubs won that game anyway. He’ll face the Mariners next weekend.

The Cubs said after the game that it was lower back tightness for Pomeranz, who stayed in and finished the inning after the visit. Pomeranz has been terrific for the Cubs after being rejected by the Mariners, allowing only one unearned run (an automatic runner scoring in the 10th) over 18 1/3 innings in a setup role.

Báez, who was out on the play, tried a swim move with his left shoulder and seemed to be in pain afterwards, but he came out for the fourth and finished the game, even as the Reds turned it into an 11-1 blowout. Odds are this will prove to be nothing, but it seemed worth a mention anyway. Báez went 0-for-3 with a walk in the contest.

The 25-year-old slugger has been sidelined since early June due to a right hamstring strain. He should only require a couple of games to get his timing back at the plate before he’s ready to rejoin the Mets. If all goes well, he could be ready to return at some point during next weekend’s series against the Phillies in Philadelphia.

The good news is that while the Astros made a flurry of roster moves on Saturday, Paredes heading to the injured list was not one of them. He has shown significant improvement since exiting Thursday’s game due to a hamstring strain and is expected to rejoin the Astros’ lineup in another day or two. Mauricio Dubon will start in his place at the hot corner on Saturday.
