Sal Stewart has been ripping the cover off the ball for AA Chattanooga all season, hitting .327/.390/.498 though 71 games.
It’s enough to make you wonder just how much longer the Cincinnati Reds will keep their former 1st round pick at AA before promoting him to AAA Louisville. One thing we did find out on Monday morning, however, is that Stewart is slated to step up and play on a stage a tad bit bigger than AA in the near future.
Stewart, along with catcher Alfredo Duno, have been named as representatives of the Cincinnati Reds in the MLB All-Star Futures Game that’s set to be played in Atlanta on Saturday, July 12th as part of the overall All Star Game weekend.
