Expected back Tuesday Shaw (personal) is expected to be back with the Cubs by Tuesday's series opener versus the Mets, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Shaw was absent from the lineup Sunday against the Reds, which is now understood to be the result of him attending the funeral of a friend.

On bench Sunday Shaw is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

Impact Shaw's streak of nine consecutive starts will come to an end Sunday, as he'll yield to Justin Turner at third base. The rookie went 6-for-31 (.194 average) with a home run and a 4:6 BB:K during the nine-game stretch.

Connects for 12th home run Shaw went 2-for-4 with a double and a two-run home run in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Reds.

Impact Shaw had been in a bit of a power drought, as this was his first home run since Aug. 20, giving him 12 for the season. While the rookie came out of the All-Star break on a hot streak, he has cooled down more recently. Since the beginning of August, Shaw is batting just .222 and he's striking out nearly 24 percent of the time. He should continue to see regular playing time now that the Cubs have clinched a playoff spot, but the team may be less patient in the postseason if Shaw slumps.

Back in lineup Friday Shaw (personal) will start at third base and bat ninth in Friday's game versus the Rays.

Impact Shaw had to be scratched from Wednesday's lineup against Atlanta due to personal reasons, but he appeared as a pinch hitter in that contest and is back in the lineup for Friday's series opener against the Rays. The rookie infielder had a great start to the second half but has slowed down in recent weeks, slashing .212/.276/.269 with no home runs over his last 19 games.

Reaches three times, swipes base Shaw went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double, a stolen base and an RBI in Monday's 7-6, extra-inning win over Atlanta.

Impact After an encouraging August in which he batted .240 with an .839 OPS and five home runs across 28 games, Shaw got off to a good start in September. The rookie only swiped one base last month, but he's now got 16 steals overall this season in 19 attempts. Shaw continues to exhibit some growing pains as a 23-year-old, though his mix of power and speed gives him plenty of fantasy upside.
