Christin Stewart News
According to a tweet from WEEI's Rob Bradford, the Boston Red Sox have reportedly signed outfielder Christin Stewart to a minor-league contract. In 587 career plate appearances, all with the Detroit Tigers, Stewart has hit .225 with a .300 on-base percentage and 15 home runs. He didn't appear in the Majors last season but did bat .254 with a .339 on-base percentage, 21 home runs, a pair of stolen bases, and a 127 wRC+ in 343 plate appearances for Detroit's Triple-A affiliate. Boston's current outfield options on the 40-man roster include Alex Verdugo, Jarren Duran, Enrique Hernandez, Tim Locastro, Hunter Renfroe, Jeisson Rosario, and J.D. Martinez.
Detroit Tigers outfielder Christin Stewart was optioned to Triple-A Toledo earlier this month. Stewart has split his past three years primarily between Triple-A and the Tigers. He's shown some significant power upside at Triple-A. Over 125 games with Toledo in 2018, he mashed 25 home runs and had a .488 slugging percentage. Stewart appeared in 10 games with the Tigers this spring before his demotion. He went 3-for-18 with no extra-base hits and 10 strikeouts. The Tigers have more depth than usual at outfield this year, so Stewart would need a major hot streak and some injuries in order to return to the Tigers roster in 2021.
Detroit Tigers outfielder Christin Stewart (concussion) was activated from the seven-day injured list on Thursday and optioned to Triple-A Toledo. He's expected to be back in Detroit when rosters expand on Sept. 1. In the meantime, Victor Reyes, Travis Demeritte and Harold Castro will continue to see everyday at-bats for the rebuilding club. Stewart has a slash line of .239/.321/.393 with seven home runs, 27 runs and 33 RBI for Detroit in 81 games this year. When he's back on the major league roster, expect him to see at least semi-regular time in the final month as the club evaluates their young outfield options heading into next season.
