Shields allowed one run on two hits and struck out one over two innings in Wednesday's game against Arizona, Barry M. Bloom of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

This was Shields first start of spring training, and the first chance to turn the page on what was a nightmare season in 2016, when the 35-year-old right-hander went 6-19 with a 5.85 ERA and 40 homers allowed. Shields had no explanation for the down year other than to say his delivery was "out of whack." He'll return to the White Sox's rotation in 2017, but there's a very real chance the veteran is traded in order to make room for the arms of the future.
