Losing out on playing time Stewart is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.
Impact On the bench for the third game in a row, Stewart appears to have faded into a utility infield role while Spencer Steer has regained control of primary duties at first base. The Reds will still likely find room for the right-handed-hitting Stewart in the lineup against left-handed pitching, but the rookie's opportunities to play against righties could be sporadic over the final week of the regular season.

Fills in at first base Saturday Stewart entered Saturday's 6-3 win over the Cubs in the sixth inning to play first base and went 0-for-1 in his lone plate appearance.
Impact Stewart entered the game when left fielder Austin Hays (back) was removed, and Spencer Steer moved from first base to left field. The rookie corner infielder had been held out of the starting lineups Friday and Saturday, likely in deference to the hot-hitting Steer and the return of third baseman Ke'Bryan Hayes, who missed time with a back issue. The Hays' injury could lead to opportunities for Stewart at first base, although manager Terry Francona has more options for left field than just Steer. Will Benson and Gavin Lux could also fill in.

Sitting again Saturday Stewart is not in Saturday's lineup against the Cubs.
Impact Stewart will head to the bench for a second game in a row, Friday against a lefty and Saturday against righty Javier Assad. The righty-hitting rookie has been swinging a hot bat (.972 OPS over his last 11 games), but Spencer Steer has been even more productive of late (three homers, eight RBI over last three games), and Steer is starting at first base and batting second Saturday.

Taking seat Friday Stewart is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Cubs.
Impact Stewart had started each of the previous six contests but will get a breather Friday after going 0-for-3 with three strikeouts in Thursday's game versus the Cubs. Spencer Steer is handling first base and Ke'Bryan Hayes (back) has returned to the lineup at third base.

Fills in for injured teammate Stewart started at third base and went 0-for-3 in Thursday's 1-0 win over the Cubs.
Impact Stewart manned the hot corner for a second consecutive game with Ke'Bryan Hayes nursing soreness in his back. Hayes is expected to see specialist, but that meeting may not happen until Monday. Presumably, Stewart will continue to fill in at third base until Hayes is ready to resume playing.

Continues to mash Stewart went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, an additional RBI and two additional runs scored in Monday's victory over the Cardinals.
Impact Stewart delivered the second three-hit effort of his young career Monday, starting it off with a 112.6 mph blast over the left-field wall. The highly-touted prospect hasn't drawn a walk yet but continues to hammer the ball at the major-league level, slashing .297/.297/.622 with four homers and six RBI through his first 11 games.

Taking over at first base Stewart started at first base and went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Athletics.
Impact Stewart launched his third homer in 10 games since being called up when rosters expanded in September. He's started four of the last five games and six of the last seven at first base, as the prospect has nudged Spencer Steer out of the way. The Reds, who were swept by the A's, are still in the hunt for a playoff spot, but manager Terry Francona appears to be juggling two missions -- develop young talent while not abandoning the quest for the postseason.
