Shaw went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and an additional RBI in Saturday's 6-1 win over the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw's two-run homer in the seventh inning extended the Cubs' lead to three, and he brought home another run after drawing a bases-loaded walk in the eighth. Shaw has been hot at the plate since the All-Star break and is in the midst of an eight-game hitting streak, going 11-for-23 (.478) with four home runs, nine RBI and two steals over that span.

Shaw isn't part of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw has been red hot coming out of the All-Star break, posting a six-game hit streak and going 9-for-19 (.474) with three homers. He'll get what appears to be a night off Friday to start off a three-game set against the White Sox. Vidal Brujan will play third base instead.

Shaw went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 8-4 loss to the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie took Steven Cruz deep in the seventh inning, Shaw's fifth homer of the season and third in the last five games. He's batting .474 (9-for-19) since the All-Star break, adding two steals, four runs and six RBI to his long balls, but he still has a lot of work to do to climb out of the hole he dug prior to the Midsummer Classic -- over his last 25 games before the break, Shaw slashed a woeful .107/.198/.147.

Shaw went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 6-0 win over the Royals. He also stole a base.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw has now collected hits in five straight games coming out of the All-Star break, and three of those have been multi-hit efforts. The rookie has been up and down this season, though he's managed to string together a few hot streaks here and there. Shaw has also been solid on the bases with 13 steals in 15 attempts. The young infielder may be susceptible to slumps at the plate, but his talent is evident.

Shaw went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Monday's 12-4 loss to the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw is showing some signs of life lately, as he's now riding a modest four-game hitting streak, and he's gone 6-for-11 during the stretch. The rookie is still batting just .216 overall, and the Cubs may target a veteran third baseman before the trade deadline as his replacement, but Shaw does have the talent to get hot. His fantasy value is higher in dynasty formats at the moment, though the 23-year-old could still deliver some production down the stretch this year depending on his role.

Shaw went 2-for-2 with a solo home run in Saturday's victory over Boston.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw began Saturday's game on the bench but entered as a substitute for Vidal Brujan at third base and tallied two hits, including a solo homer in the seventh inning. The rookie has endured a rocky start to his MLB career, slashing .208/.283/.302 with 14 extra-base hits, 16 RBI and 12 stolen bases across 65 games. While the numbers are underwhelming, it's still too early to dismiss the once highly-regarded prospect.

Shaw is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw will close out of the Cubs' first-half schedule having been held out of the lineup for three consecutive games and four of the last five, and he's managed just one hit in 26 at-bats to begin July. Vidal Brujan will get the start at third base after Jon Berti filled in for Shaw over the past two contests, but the Cubs may look to the trade market for an upgrade at the position if the organization isn't convinced that Shaw will be able to improve his offensive production coming out of the All-Star break.

Shaw isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw has been held hitless in his last 21 at-bats and will get a day off Saturday to regroup. Jon Berti will start at third base and bat ninth for Chicago.

The Cubs may target third base help before the trade deadline, which would bump Shaw from a regular starting role, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Most of Chicago's regulars have hit well this season, but Shaw has been inconsistent. While the rookie has shown flashes of promise after a slow start to the year, he's still slashing just .200/.278/.283 through 230 plate appearances. Over the 23-year-old's last 20 games, that's dipped to .127/.219/.175. With the Cubs sitting in first place in the NL Central and realistically in the mix for a World Series this season, the front office may decide to shore up the hot corner in the short term, with the likes of Eugenio Suarez and Ke'Bryan Hayes as potential targets. A big addition at the hot corner would cut into Shaw's already diminished fantasy appeal this year, though he remains an intriguing long-term prospect.

Shaw is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

Shaw had started each of the previous seven contests but will get a breather Wednesday. The Cubs will turn to Jon Berti at third base.
