EDGE Analysis

It's too little too late to save his season, but Shields now has three quality starts in his past four outings and has struck out 24 batters in 23.1 innings in that span. Shields didn't give up a home run for just the second time in his past 10 starts, and his season has been defined by a career high 38 homers allowed in 32 starts split between the Padres and White Sox.
