As of my last update in October 2023, there is no widely recognized baseball player by the name of Shies in Major League Baseball or other prominent leagues. It's possible that a player with that name could exist in minor leagues or amateur baseball, but they may not have gained significant recognition. For the most current information, checking recent rosters or sports news sources would be advisable.

When 3rd baseman Pablo Sandoval injured his hamstring last month, he was sent to the Minor Leagues to get back in the groove of playing baseball.
Louis Gillis was a baseball player who played in the Negro Leagues, primarily known for his time with the Indianapolis ABCs in the 1920s.
