Sal Stewart’s Hidden Rookie Power | Cincinnati Reds News

Sal Stewart is crushing it as a 22-year-old rookie for the Reds, leading all NL rookies with 84 RBIs, 23 homers, and 46 extra-base hits — numbers that rival legends. Yet Baseball America ranks him just 14th, sparking debate when compared to players with far fewer stats. His .255 average hides elite power (.477 SLG) and clutch run production. While some note a slight dip in recent form, his plate discipline and bad-luck moments can’t erase his impact. Stewart stays grounded, prioritizing team wins over personal accolades — a rare maturity for his age. The Reds have a true star on their hands: a dominant, winning-minded hitter who’s rewriting rookie records and proving he’s one of MLB’s most valuable bats, regardless of experience.
