A's look at former Jayhawk
By Brady Prauser
Kansan sportswriter
Minor league baseball is the stairway to the major leagues for players who are good enough to make it.
Former Kansas pitcher Curtis Shaw is taking the elevator.
Shaw has advanced rapidly in the Oakland Athletics farm system, and recently was named to the A'40-man roster of players invited to spring training in Phoenix this month. The A's will keep 24 players on the roster and assign the rest to their minor league affiliates.
Shaw will report to spring training in about two weeks.
"I expect to be a bit nervous when I get there, but right now I'm not because I'm still in Kansas," Shaw said. "But when I get on the practice field with those guys, I'm sure the
nerves will kick in."
Curtis Shaw
Reflecting on last season's performance should help calm Shaw's nerves. Pitching for the A's Class A Modesto, Calif., team, he posted a 13-4 record and led
the team in wins, ERA, innings pitched and strikeouts.
Although Shaw will be attending a major league spring training camp, it is unlikely that he will be in the majors after the camp ends.
over. If I had to pick a spot where I think I'll be, it's double A."
That would put Shaw on the A's Huntsville, Ala, team. Minor league team levels begin at Single A, go to Low A, Mid A, High A, Double A, Triple A and the majors. The Modesto team that Shaw played for last season, his third in professional baseball, was a High A Team.
"Money is not to be made in the minors," he said. "But this is the only chance I have to play big league ball. My goal is to make it to the big leagues, not to make a million dollars. Maybe later, that will change."
Since completing his season last September, Shaw has been in Lawrence working on degrees in business and history. He and for one teammate Eric Stonechipere, a pitcher in the San Francisco Giants farm organization, have been lifting weights and
running six days a week since that time. They began working out with the Jajawks Tuesday.
Shaw said Kansas pitching coach Wilson Kilner had been instrumental in his and Stonecipher's development, both in college and in the minors.
Shaw, a Bartlesville, Okla., native, walked on to the Kansas team in 1988, and became a two-time All-Big Eight Conference selection.
He left Kansas after his junior season when the A's drafted him in the second round of the 1990 Major League Baseball draft.
"He is a highly motivated person," said Kansas coach Dave Bingham. "He's been given some talent that has developed late, and he is beginning to accept the responsibilities of developing that talent."
