0 in redraft 5x5 and dynasty 5x5 and redraft pts and redraft obp and dynasty obp: that isn't missing data. Each value counts only what a player adds over the best one a standard league leaves on waivers, and in leagues of 12 teams with 18 starters and 5 bench spots each (276 players rostered), or 12 teams with 18 starters and 12 bench spots each (360 players rostered), or 10 teams with 16 starters and 3 bench spots each (190 players rostered), David Shields's projected line (0 IP · 0 W · 0 SV · 0 K · — ERA · — WHIP) doesn't clear that bar there. He'd be a free pickup in that league; in a deeper league, or yours if it rosters more, he can be worth something.

What it takes
Worth the same in redraft 5×5
At the waiver line in a standard league, so not a trade piece there: a team can usually pick up someone like him for free.
