Matt Shaw Earns Promotion To Triple-A
4 months agoThe Chicago Cubs are set to promote third base prospect Matt Shaw to Triple-A Iowa. Shaw was the Cubs first-round pick in the 2023 MLB Draft and has quickly risen through the team's system. Shaw, 22, has spent this season in Double-A Tennessee, where he hit .279 with 14 homers, 50 RBI and 25 stolen bases to go along with an .841 OPS. The promotion should not come as a surprise with Shaw performing all season long and hitting .417 with three homers over his last 10 games. Shaw is the No. 29 prospect per MLB Pipeline and he could see his name called this summer with the Cubs offense struggling. Shaw's consistency and ability to play around the infield make him a strong option in dynasty leagues and an intriguing stash in redraft leagues.
