Shaw signed a minor-league deal with the Brewers on Tuesday that includes an invitation to major-league spring training, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old will rejoin the Brewers after spending a year with the Blue Jays, and he'll earn $1.5 million if he cracks the big-league roster, plus another potential $1.5 million in incentives. He can opt out of the deal if not on the major-league roster March 15. Shaw had an .844 OPS and 63 homers over his first two seasons in Milwaukee, but he was let go after posting a .551 OPS and 33.0 percent strikeout rate in 2019. Luis Urias is the current favorite for the starting job at third base, but Shaw should be in the competition given Urias has yet to establish himself in the big leagues.

Shaw was non-tendered by the Blue Jays on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
He bounced back slightly from the .157/.281/.270 line he logged with Milwaukee in 2019, hitting .239/.306/.411 in his lone year with Toronto. However, it wasn't enough of a rebound for Toronto to pay him in arbitration. Vladimir Guerrero and Rowdy Tellez look like the clear first baseman and designated hitter of the future for the Blue Jays.

Shaw (back) will bat seventh and play third base Wednesday against the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
Shaw was scratched from Tuesday's lineup with back spasms, but the issue was evidently a minor one, as he's ready to go just one day later. He'll be looking to bounce back from a poor stretch at the plate, as he's hitting just .160/.267/.360 over his last 10 games.
