Chris Shaw, LF. DOB: 10/20/1993. B-L, T-R. 6'3", 226 lbs. Drafted 2015 Round 1, #31 overall.
2018 AAA: .259/.308/.505, 21 2B, 2 3B, 24 HR, 5.0 BB%, 34.1 K%, 1.01 GB/FB, 422 PA.
2018 MLB: .185/274/.278, 2 2B, HR, 11.3 BB%, 37.1 K%, 0.86 GB/FB, 62 PA.
Chris Shaw was the top power bat in the Giants organization until Joey Bart was drafted. Shaw's strikeouts spiked when he reached AAA and have not come back down. That is also when the Giants committed to playing him exclusively in LF, so maybe he is concentrating on his fielding? Anyway, I have him in the top 10 due to belief in his power, not looking terrible in LF during his Sept. callup and just the fact he has a few MLB innings under his belt. He should start the 2019 season in AAA and work on cutting down on the K's.

Without a FA signing or trade, isn't Shaw "in" the 2019 outfield: Shaw, Duggar, and Williamson?
ReplyDeleteOr is he behind Slater and Ferguson?
It's pretty much "make-or-break time for Austin, isn't it? And Mac.
