Shaw batted just .157 with a .281 on-base percentage and .270 slugging over 86 games for the Milwaukee Brewers last season, his worst in four years in the majors. “It didn’t work out obviously, it kinda backfired on me,” Shaw said of the swing adjustment. “I fought my body and I fought myself all year trying to get back to where I was the two years prior to that.”
“The AL East is kinda the big boy division … they’ve had that reputation since I started following baseball at a young age,” Shaw said. “And obviously when you play against the Red Sox and Yankees, those series are always fun. But for me it’s the familiarity with the league, the travel and everything that helps, that’s nothing new for me.
The versatile infielder, who turns 30 this April, is currently the oldest position player on Toronto’s young roster. And as the son of former all-star reliever Jeff Shaw, he gives the Blue Jays the unique distinction of having a full four-man infield of second-generation MLB players alongside Guerrero, Bo Bichette and Cavan Biggio, who all made their debuts last year.
