N&N: Guardians hand Reds their first 1-run win of the season

The Very Bad

• Cleveland hosted the laughingstock Reds last night. The 9-win Reds. The owner-not-even-trying Reds. And Cleveland lost. By a score of 5-4. To a team that had won 0 one-run games this season.
• The Reds hit into 5 double plays, and won. Days after giving up 0 hits, and losing.

The Good, If True

• Jacob deGrom is “doing extremely well” according to the Mets. He “remains at least a month away from a return.”
• “Terry Francona, the rest of the coaching staff and Josh Naylor are all feeling better.” Hitting coach Chris Valaika returned last night.

The Logical

• Logan Allen was already DFA’d by the Orioles.
• The Dodgers hadn’t played a home doubleheader since the ‘90s, but had to yesterday because of the lockout. They won both games.

The Unfortunate

• Salvador Perez was placed on 10-day IL.
• Jake Odorizzi was placed on the 15-day IL.

The Yikes

• Matt Harvey was suspended 60 games without pay for drug distribution.
• JC Mejia was suspended 80 games for PED use.
