About

Sal Stewart is an exceptionally intelligent, highly disciplined 6'3" corner infielder originating from Miami, Florida. Drafted out of high school as a consensus first round talent by the Cincinnati Reds, Stewart rapidly separated himself from typical prep prospects by showcasing a generational, elite plate approach. Renowned for a pristine walk-to-strikeout ratio and a highly optimized line-drive swing, Stewart systematically dismantled upper-minor league pitching before arriving in the Major Leagues. Capable of driving the ball to all fields with substantial gap-to-gap power, his offensive profile translates cleanly to a high-on base run producer.

Key notes: 2022: Selected 1st Round (No. 32 Overall) in the 2022 MLB Draft; 2024: Named a Midwest League (High-A) Post-Season All Star; 2025: Promoted to the Major Leagues, logging his official MLB debut; 2026: Maintained Red Rookie Redemption eligibility while taking over a regular infield corner role.
