Chris Stewart

Chris Stewart will sit out Saturday in Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Chris Stewart is not in the starting lineup on Saturday against the Cincinnati Reds.

What It Means:

Elias Diaz is taking over behind the plate on Saturday, so Stewart will serve as the last man off the bench. Diaz is batting out of the sixth spot against right-hander Tyler Mahle.

Our models project Stewart for a .200 batting average, with 2 RBI, and 2 runs scored over 28 plate appearances remaining this season.
