Matt Shaw | Fantasy Outlook

Matt Shaw remains confined to a bench role with sparse playing time

Shaw has seen sparse playing time down the stretch, logging just three at-bats across three appearances over the last month for a second-place Cubs team sitting at 77-60. While he made the most of his chances by collecting a double and a walk, he remains parked on the bench with Chicago's everyday lineup firmly established.

Through 59 games this season, the young utility man is slashing .248/.327/.421 with four home runs and four stolen bases, improving on his .222 rookie average from a year ago. However, our projections anticipate a limited ceiling of eight home runs and 12 steals, as his sporadic pinch-hitting role prevents him from generating consistent category juice.

Chicago faces a busy seven-game slate this week, starting at home against a formidable Brewers rotation featuring Jacob Misiorowski (1.73 ERA) and Logan Henderson (2.48 ERA) before traveling to Miami to face vulnerable arms like Janson Junk (4.20 ERA). Without regular everyday plate appearances, Shaw cannot be trusted in fantasy lineups. Sit.
