Sent to Triple-A Stewart was optioned to Triple-A Iowa on Saturday.

Impact His ERA shot to 5.68 after giving up five earned runs in four innings Friday against the Cardinals. Stewart could return to the big-league rotation later this summer if he can show some improvement at Triple-A. Cory Abbott could be an option to take his rotation spot, and Adbert Alzolay (finger) will eventually rejoin the rotation.

ERA shoots above 5.00 Stewart gave up five earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three in four innings Friday against the Cardinals. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact His ERA ballooned from 3.12 to 5.68 with this poor outing. After logging five scoreless innings May 31 against the Padres, Stewart has now failed to record more than 12 outs in either of his last two outings. If Stewart remains in the rotation, his next outing would be on the road early next week against the Mets.

Rejoins big-league club Stewart was recalled from Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

Impact The 26-year-old was sent to Triple-A Monday but will quickly rejoin the Cubs since Adbert Alzolay (finger) landed on the injured list with a blister. Stewart could fill Alzolay's spot in the rotation, which tentatively lines up for Saturday versus the Cardinals.

Sent to Triple-A Stewart was optioned to Triple-A Iowa on Monday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact The 26-year-old struggled in his second start of the season Saturday versus the Giants with three runs allowed on seven hits over 3.2 innings, and he'll return to the minors with Trevor Williams potentially nearing his return from an appendectomy. Stewart covered five scoreless frames during his first start of the season and could receive another look in Chicago's rotation later in the year.

Suffers first loss Stewart (1-1) took the loss Saturday against the Giants, completing 3.2 innings and allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out five.

Impact The right-hander impressed in his season debut Monday, holding San Diego to an unearned run over five innings. He was much less effective Saturday, as San Francisco racked up seven hits -- including a home run off the bat off Alex Dickerson -- against him in less than four innings. Stewart induced only four swinging strikes in the contest and missed the zone on 33 of his 79 pitches. Trevor Williams (appendicitis) could return by the end of the coming week, which would likely result in Stewart's removal from the rotation.

Picking up another start Stewart is slated to start Saturday's game in San Francisco, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

Impact Unsurprisingly, Stewart will pick up a second straight turn through the Chicago rotation while Trevor Williams remains on the 10-day injured list following an appendectomy. While filling in for Williams on Monday in his team debut, Stewart limited the Padres to an unearned run on three hits and one walk while striking out two en route to picking up his first big-league win since July 21, 2019.

JUNE 2, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Cruises through five innings Stewart (1-0) allowed one unearned run on a walk and three hits over five innings Monday, striking out two and earning a win over the Padres.

Impact The only run to score against Stewart came in the second inning after Fernando Tatis reached base on an error. It was the 26-year-old's first MLB appearance since the 2019 season when he recorded a 6.39 ERA in nine games. Stewart will likely get another turn in the rotation this weekend in San Francisco while Trevor Williams (appendicitis) is on the injured list.

Báez goes deep twice as Stewart, Cubs beat Padres 7-2

Javier Báez and Patrick Wisdom each homered twice, helping Kohl Stewart and the Chicago Cubs beat the San Diego Padres 7-2

MAY 31, 2021 • Associated Press

Picking up start Monday Stewart has been announced as the Cubs' starting pitcher for Monday's game against the Padres.

Impact Stewart had not even been recalled to the major-league roster as of Monday morning, but he will now take the spot of Trevor Williams (appendicitis), who was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding roster move. Stewart has started in all four of his appearances with Triple-A Iowa, tallying 22 innings, so he should be reasonably stretched out headed into his start.

Elects free agency Stewart refused an outright assignment to Triple-A Norfolk and was released by the Orioles on Friday, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact The 26-year-old elected free agency after being removed from the 40-man roster and going unclaimed on waivers. Stewart opted out of the 2020 season due to COVID-19 since he's a Type 1 diabetic.

Cast off 40-man roster Stewart cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Stewart opted out of the 2020 season amid the COVID-19 pandemic, and he'll be removed from the 40-man roster heading into the offseason. The 26-year-old made nine appearances (two starts) for the Twins in 2019, posting a 6.39 ERA and 10:8 K:BB over 25.1 innings.

Impact The 26-year-old was a member of the team's three-man taxi squad, but he'll join the big-league club with Kohl Stewart opting out of the season. Eshelman should work out of long relief early on but could see starting opportunities at some point this season.

Option to start Sunday Stewart is a "strong candidate" to start Sunday against the Rays, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Stewart and Tommy Milone are both being considered for Sunday's start. The right-handed Stewart has yet to debut this season but should still be stretched out enough to provide multiple innings should he get the ball.

JULY 30, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Candidate to start Sunday Milone is a "strong candidate" to start Sunday against the Rays, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Alex Cobb and Wade LeBlanc are lined up to pitch the first two games of the series, leaving either Milone or Kohl Stewart to take the finale. Milone struck out five in his season debut against the Red Sox but otherwise struggled, allowing four runs on four hits and three walks across three innings.

Could see big innings bump Manager Brandon Hyde said Stewart is a candidate to get "a lot of innings" this season, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Stewart is competing for a spot in Baltimore's rotation, though Hyde noted that the right-hander is also a candidate fill a long- or bulk-relief role. Either way, it sounds like Stewart could see an innings bump with his new team after struggling to a 6.39 ERA across 25.1 innings with the Twins in 2019.
