Taking seat Sunday Shaw is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

Impact Jon Berti will receive the nod at third base while Shaw sits after starting in each of the Cubs' last seven games. During that stretch, the rookie went 6-for-25 with four RBI, three runs and three steals. He's contributed 10 stolen bases in 11 attempts on the season, but his fantasy contributions have been fairly muted beyond that, as he's hitting just .222 with two home runs, 25 runs and 13 RBI over 200 plate appearances.

Cubs' Short-Term Matt Shaw Replacement Could Already Be In Their Sights The Chicago Cubs need to find a short-term solution at third base while Matt Shaw continues to develop and refine his tools.

Drives in three Friday Shaw went 2-for-4 with two doubles and three RBI in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Astros.

Impact It's been an up-and-down rookie campaign for Shaw, but he's shown flashes such as he did Friday, setting a new season and career best with the three RBI. It was also the second time this year that the 23-year-old tallied two doubles in a contest. Shaw is still slashing just .222/.297/.318 overall, though he's seeing pretty regular playing time as Chicago's primary option at third base, and he has the talent to get on a hot streak at any point.

Impact After resting in Saturday's 10-7 win, Shaw will return to the lineup for the series finale. The rookie has settled in as Chicago's primary third baseman and has shown some promise, though he's slumping a bit this month with a .172/.200/.276 slash line in 17 June games.

Taking seat Sunday Shaw is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.

Impact Jon Berti will fill in at third base while Shaw heads to the bench for the first time since being recalled from Triple-A Iowa on May 19. Shaw's second go-around in the majors has been far more successful than his first stint with the Cubs; despite going 0-for-13 over his last four starts, the rookie is still batting .264 with one home run and seven stolen bases since rejoining the big club.

Pops second homer Shaw went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 6-1 win over the Tigers.

Impact The rookie third baseman launched a slider from Keider Montero over the left-field fence in the seventh inning, one of five long balls by the Cubs on the afternoon. It's the second homer of the season for Shaw and his first since he returned to the majors May 19.

Seiya Suzuki hits two of the five Cubs home runs in a 6-1 win over the Tigers

The Chicago Cubs hit five home runs, including two by Seiya Suzuki, and went on to a 6-1 win over the Detroit Tigers

JUNE 7 • Associated Press

Collects two more hits Friday Shaw went 2-for-3 with a double and a run scored in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Tigers.

Impact Despite facing Detroit ace Tarik Skubal, Shaw managed to record his second straight multi-hit effort, and he mustered Chicago's only run in a game where scoring was at a premium. After getting demoted following a rocky start to his rookie campaign, Shaw has been a lot better since getting recalled from Triple-A Iowa on May 19. Over his past 16 games, the 23-year-old has slashed .345/.387/.466 with seven doubles, four RBI and 10 runs scored.

Big effort in win Shaw went 3-for-5 with two runs scored in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Nationals. He also stole two bases.

Impact Shaw was electric from the No. 8 spot in the order as he snapped a 1-for-13 slump that stretched across his last four games. This was the rookie's second career game with three hits. It was also his second career game with multiple stolen bases, and he now has seven steals for the season in seven attempts. Shaw remains a work in progress at the plate, but his ability on the bases is giving his fantasy value a boost, and he has the potential to do even more with the bat as he gets more comfortable against MLB pitching.
