Milwaukee sits Travis Shaw against Cubs

Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Travis Shaw is not in Thursday's starting lineup.

What It Means:

Shaw swings lefty and the Brewers are facing a lefty starter, so he will take a seat as the lineup gets loaded with right-handed bats. Hernan Perez is playing third in his place today.

Our models project Shaw to hit .273 with 11 home runs, 40 runs, 42 RBI, and 5 stolen bases in 293 more plate appearances in 2017.
