Shaw signed a minor-league contract with the White Sox on Saturday and received an invitation to major-league spring training.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw will return to the White Sox after putting up a 4.14 ERA and 1.23 WHIP across 45.2 innings with Chicago last season. The Sox don't have a particularly strong bullpen, making it possible the 36-year-old righty makes the Opening Day roster, but he will still have plenty of competition in camp.

Shaw picked up the save in Thursday's 3-1 victory over the Diamondbacks, striking out one over a perfect inning.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw entered the contest with a two-run lead in the ninth and needed only 11 pitches to retire the side and secure his fourth save of the season. The right-handed reliever has converted his last two save opportunities and has struck out at least one batter in 13 of his last 15 appearances. He carries a 1.08 ERA in September to go along with a 20:6 K:BB.

Shaw picked up the save in Saturday's 1-0 victory over the Red Sox. He allowed two hits and struck out two in a scoreless ninth inning.

EDGE Analysis

Despite surrendering two singles in the ninth inning, Shaw was able to successfully shut the door on Boston, earning his third save of the season. After 10 consecutive scoreless appearances to start September, the veteran reliever had given up an earned run in each of his previous two outings prior to Saturday. He now owns a 4.65 ERA and 1.30 WHIP across 33 appearances (40.2 innings) on the campaign.

Shaw walked one and struck out two in a scoreless and hitless inning to earn the save in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw has kept runs off the board in seven of his last eight outings, and five of those efforts have seen him get more than three outs. The right-hander got the ninth inning after Gregory Santos earned a hold after relieving Aaron Bummer in the eighth inning. Shaw has a 5.46 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 27:11 K:BB through 31.1 innings this season while adding two saves and two holds. He's not the top late-inning option, but Shaw is getting some looks late in the White Sox's disappointing season.

Shaw earned a save against the Yankees on Monday, allowing one hit and striking out four batters over two scoreless innings.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw entered in the top of the eighth inning with Chicago up 2-1, and he dominated by striking out the side on 13 pitches. The White Sox scored three times in the bottom of the frame, so manager Pedro Grifol elected to allow the right-hander the opportunity to close things out. Shaw did so without much trouble, allowing a leadoff double to Aaron Judge in the ninth but retiring the next three batters. It was the veteran reliever's first save of the campaign and 16th of his career, but he doesn't figure to get many more chances moving forward despite an unsettled closer situation since Liam Hendriks was lost for the season with an elbow injury and Kendall Graveman and Reynaldo Lopez were both traded at the deadline.

Shaw's contract was selected from Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The 35-year-old reliever had a 4.94 ERA in 23.2 innings at Triple-A and a 9.39 ERA in 7.2 innings in the big leagues earlier this year. Shaw will work in low-leverage situations.

Shaw was sent outright to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday, per the MLB's transactions log.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw was designated for assignment by the White Sox on Saturday, and after failing to draw any interest from around the league, he'll end up in Charlotte. He owns a 4.03 ERA and 1.21 WHIP with 24 strikeouts in 21 appearances this season at Triple-A (22.1 innings).

Shaw was designated for assignment Saturday, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw loses his spot with Joe Kelly ready to return from the injured list. The 35-year-old reliever allowed eight runs over 7.2 relief innings during his brief time with the White Sox.

The White Sox selected Shaw's contract from Triple-A Charlotte on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw is a veteran of 753 career regular-season appearances, but he has yet to pitch at the big-league level in 2023 after he was forced to settle for a minor-league deal with the White Sox this offseason coming off a poor season with the Guardians. The 35-year-old right-hander has pitched respectably at Charlotte this season, logging a 4.03 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 24:14 K:BB in 22.1 innings. Look for the White Sox to limit his usage to lower-leverage spots initially, but he could eventually work his way into a setup role if he excels early on.

Shaw signed a minor-league contract Friday with the White Sox, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw was released by the White Sox in late March after failing to claim a spot on the Opening Day roster, but he'll get another shot with the organization after going unsigned for a full month. The veteran reliever will first head to the club's spring training complex in Arizona before eventually joining up with Triple-A Charlotte.
