| 9/23/25 | Cubs 3B Shaw says he's 'not concerned at all' about backlash for attending Charlie Kirk memorial. Chicago Cubs third baseman Matt Shaw insists he has no regrets about missing a game to attend the memorial for his friend Charlie Kirk, saying he had an invitation from the right-wing commentator’s widow and permission from the team to attend the event in Glendale, Arizona. Shaw says Kirk’s widow Erika texted asking him to attend the event, and that he was “not concerned at all” about any backlash toward him for going. He says he and Kirk lived in the same apartment complex in Arizona and connected through their faith. Kirk, a Chicago area native, would text Shaw after Cubs games. He posed for a photo with Shaw and Chicago infielder Michael Busch on the Cubs’ dugout following a game at Wrigley Field in August. Shaw missed a 1-0 loss at Cincinnati on Sunday.

| 8/23/25 | Cubs rookie Matt Shaw has stood alone offensively over the last two weeks. The Chicago Cubs rookie has been the surprising bat keeping the team's offense afloat. While the Chicago Cubs seem to have all but locked themselves into a Wild Card spot and have at least an outside shot in the NL Central race, they've managed to get in their current position despite the offense being mostly dismal since the All-Star break.

| 8/11/25 | The Good and Not So Good From Cubs vs Cardinals Series: Matt Shaw Powers Up. For the second straight series, the Chicago Cubs were unable to claim a series victory, as they dropped two of three games against their arch-rival Saint Louis Cardinals. The Cubs only won the second game of the series and did so with an offensive onslaught that led to a nine to one victory. Chicago (67-50) is still firmly in control of its destiny in the National League wild card picture, but its chances of winning the NL Central, which looks so good just six weeks ago, are slipping away. The Chicago Cubs are off on Monday which is a travel day as they head north of the border to face the red-hot Toronto Blue Jays starting Tuesday.

| 8/10/25 | Cubs squander Matt Shaw's continued hot streak in 3-2 loss to Cardinals. Cubs rookie Matt Shaw's home run swing Sunday, from top to bottom, looked far different from the first home run swing of his career a little over four months ago. “I think Matt's always going to be a bit of a tinkerer mechanically,” manager Craig Counsell said before the Cubs' 3-2 loss to the Cardinals Sunday. The Cubs offense had been quiet against Cardinals starter Sonny Gray until Shaw's game-tying two-run home run in the fifth inning. The Cubs squandered Shaw's clutch blast to lose the three-game series at Busch Stadium and drop to six games back of the MLB and NL Central-leading Brewers.
