Shaw pitched a perfect inning in Monday's 4-3 loss to the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Shaw induced three groundouts in the eighth inning to preserve a 3-3 tie. The 33-year-old right-hander is off to a solid start with a 2.25 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and four strikeouts across four innings. Shaw is expected to see work in the middle innings more often that not, although he does have a hold to his credit in 2021.

Cleveland informed Shaw on Wednesday that he made the Opening Day roster, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old signed as a non-roster invitee in early February but will now be added to the big-league roster after allowing three runs with a 13:5 K:BB over 9.2 innings during spring training. Shaw's could work his way into a high-leverage role if he continues to put up similar numbers in the regular season.

Shaw signed a minor-league deal with the Indians on Tuesday that includes an invitation to big-league camp.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander had a strong five-year career in Cleveland before departing after the 2017 season, but he has a 6.17 ERA in 137 games over the past three years. Shaw will need a strong showing in spring training to have a chance of cracking the Opening Day roster.

Shaw elected to become a free agent Thursday, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Shaw was outrighted to the Mariners' alternate training site in August, and he'll opt to search for a new organization ahead of the 2021 season. The right-hander has struggled over the past three seasons as he carries a 6.17 ERA and 1.62 WHIP over 132.2 innings with the Rockies and Mariners.

Shaw cleared waivers and was outrighted to the Mariners' alternate training site Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Shaw was designated for assignment Saturday following a rough start to the 2020 season, but he'll remain in the organization. If he can demonstrate better results at alternate camp than he did in the majors, he could be a candidate to return to the 28-man roster at some point, but he's unlikely to have a very prominent role with the major-league club if he returns.

Shaw was designated for assignment by the Mariners on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Shaw hasn't been very effective this season as he's allowed 12 runs on 13 hits and six walks over six innings. He was shuffled between alternate camp and the major-league roster, but he'll now lose his spot on the 40-man roster. Southpaw Ljay Newsome's contract was selected by the Mariners in a corresponding move Saturday.

Shaw was recalled from the Mariners' alternate training site Monday.
EDGE Analysis
After being sent to alternate camp Thursday, Shaw will rejoin the major-league bullpen to take the place of Carl Edwards (forearm) on the active roster for now. Shaw struggled mightily in his last three major-league appearances before being optioned, allowing 10 runs over 2.1 innings during that time. Given his lack of production this year, he'll likely pitch in lower-leverage situations.

The Mariners optioned Shaw to their alternate training site Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Seattle signed Shaw ahead of Opening Day with the hope that he might rebound after he struggled the past two years while pitching at altitude in Colorado, but the veteran right-hander was a disaster through his first four games of the bullpen. In just 3.1 innings, Shaw gave up 10 runs on 10 hits and four walks while striking out just one. Though he'll retain a spot on the 40-man roster, Shaw's poor results thus far could make the Mariners reluctant to call him up anytime soon.

Shaw will sign with the Mariners on Monday, Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Shaw was released by the Rockies on Friday, but he'll quickly find a home in Seattle ahead of the regular season. The right-hander struggled out of the bullpen over the past two seasons and should play a low-leverage role as he looks to bounce back during the abbreviated 2020 season.

Shaw was waived by the Rockies on Friday and will be released, Kyle Newman of The Denver Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Shaw is still owed $9 million by the Rockies, but the team won't wind up getting anything in exchange for that money. The veteran righty was given $27 million guaranteed by Colorado back in December of 2017 but proceeded to record ERAs of 5.93 and 5.38 in his first two seasons with the team after previously posting an ERA no worse than 3.52.
