Shaw came off the bench to hit his first major-league home run in Monday's 9-8 loss to Colorado.
EDGE Analysis
It was also the rookie's first major-league hit after going 0-for-6 in his first three games since being called up Aug. 31. Shaw is currently on the strong side of a platoon in left field, and could be a rare source of pop in San Francisco's lineup after slugging 24 homers over 101 games with Triple-A Sacramento this season.

Shaw is not in the lineup Monday against the Rockies, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Shaw will head to the bench with a southpaw in Tyler Anderson starting for the Rockies. The rookie, who is 0-for-6 with five strikeouts through his first three big-league games, is expected to start mostly against right-handed pitchers down the stretch.

Shaw is set to start mostly against right-handed pitchers, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
The lefty hitter certainly impressed with his power while launching 24 homers and slugging .505 for Triple-A Sacramento, but Shaw is likely to be treated as a platoon asset and sit against most left-handed hurlers. The fading Giants, who just traded Andrew McCutchen, are in a position to see what Shaw is made of as they play out the string on 2018, which could make him a matchup play in many deeper mixed fantasy formats.

Shaw will have his contract purchased from Triple-A Sacramento on Friday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Shaw will join the active roster and take the 40-man place of Andrew McCutchen, who was traded to the Yankees in exchange for Abiatal Avelino and Juan De Paula on Friday. Across 101 games with Sacramento this year, Shaw has slashed .259/.308/.505 with 24 home runs and 65 RBI. The left fielder has power that is sorely needed in the Giants' lineup, though the club's home park won't be of much assistance. Look for Shaw to receive plenty of opportunities to show off his potential over the final month of the 2018 campaign during his first taste of the big leagues.
