Bryan Shaw To Begin Rehab Assignment
6 years agoColorado Rockies setup man Bryan Shaw is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment on Friday after being sidelined since June 24 with a strained calf. Colorado's bullpen woes in 2018 have been encapsulated by Shaw's disappointing performance. Brought in as a high-priced stopper to help bridge the gap between mediocre starting pitching and strong closer Wade Davis, Shaw has been a dumpster fire instead. He's saddled with a 7.57 ERA after 35 2/3 innings this season, and he's already walked 20 batters after only walking 22 all last season. If Shaw can return and just be mediocre, it could be a huge boost for Colorado's bullpen.
