Fantasy Impact:

Shields has been sidelined since the middle of April with a strained lat. He was pitching well before the injury with a 1.62 ERA through three starts. However, he also posted a 16:10 strikeout to walk ratio, which likely means he was getting a bit lucky. Fantasy players should wait and see how he does once back in the majors before picking him up. He may only need two more rehab starts including tomorrow.
