Fantasy Analysis
Stewart batted just .156 with six RBI in 48 games in Colorado last season as he dealt with a wrist injury. He is only a career .236 hitter in the majors, but he slugged 25 homers in 2009, so we know the potential is there. He is playing in another favorable hitter's park, which should benefit Stewart. Still, it's best to treat him as a late-round Fantasy sleeper in deep formats. It's no guarantee he will return to form. (Updated 01/17/2012).
12/08/2011 21:49 Cubs acquire Stewart in four-player swap with Rockies
The Chicago Cubs have acquired third baseman Ian Stewart and right-handed reliever Casey Weathers from the Colorado Rockies for outfielder Tyler Colvin and infielder D.J. LeMahieu.
Stewart will enter the 2012 season fully healthy and ready to turn over a new leaf with his new team the Cubs. Stewart batted just .156 with six RBI over 48 games last year in Colorado. A wrist injury and poor production limited his at-bats and the Rockies jettisoned him to Chicago. Just a career .236 hitter in the bigs, Stewart, who turns 27 very early in the season, slugged 25 home runs in 2009. The potential is there and the Cubs appear willing to give him the at-bats to realize it. Of course, Stewart will have to prove the ability to remain healthy and productive for Chicago before Fantasy owners start taking him seriously. Until that time, Stewart will remain just an NL-only Fantasy option with the upside of unrealized potential. He's a late-round Fantasy sleeper, at best. (Updated 2/8/12)
