Ian Stewart (nose) was scratched from the Angels' Cactus League lineup on Monday. Stewart was accidentally hit in the nose by his young daughter and will meet with the Angels' medical staff on Monday to determine whether there are any fractures. He is in Angels camp as a non-roster invitee.

Angels signed 3B Ian Stewart to a minor league contract. The deal includes an invitation to spring training. The 29-year-old has struggled to produce at the major league level, last appearing with the Cubs in 2012. He owns a .232/.319/.417 career line and will look to catch on as bench depth with the Halos.

Dodgers signed 3B Ian Stewart to a minor league contract. Despite hitting just .168/.286/.372 over 40 games with Triple-A Iowa before his release, Stewart still possesses prodigious power and several organizations showed interest in giving him a chance before the Dodgers scooped him up. He'll serve as organizational depth at Triple-A Albuquerque for the time being.

ESPN's Buster Olney reports that the Yankees are considering signing Ian Stewart to a minor league contract. Stewart was batting just .168/.286/.372 in 40 games with Triple-A Iowa prior to his release by the Cubs, but he'll have no trouble getting someone to take a shot on him. Olney previously reported that the Marlins and Diamondbacks are two possible landing spots for the third baseman.

ESPN's Buster Olney writes that the Marlins and Diamondbacks are top possible landing spots for free agent third baseman Ian Stewart. It's not clear if he's speculating on landing spots or whether the clubs have legitimate interest. Stewart was given his release by the Cubs this week after he completed a suspension for making some controversial comments about the team on Twitter. The 28-year-old was batting just .168/.286/.372 in 40 games with Triple-A Iowa prior to his release, so he'll have to earn his way back to the majors.

Cubs released INF Ian Stewart. The move comes two weeks after Stewart was suspended for expressing frustration about the Cubs on his personal Twitter account. It's not clear if he will give any of his salary back to the team for getting his release. As is, he's still owed about half of his $2 million salary for this season.

CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reports that the Cubs and Ian Stewart are close to parting ways.

The Cubs reinstated Ian Stewart from his 10-day suspension on Saturday. Stewart had been suspended for violating the "loyalty clause" in his contract, speaking out in frustration about being in the minors on Twitter. He certainly didn't do himself any favors with the outburst, so it's safe to assume he won't be recalled by the club any time soon.

The Cubs have suspended Ian Stewart 10 days for violating the "loyalty clause" in his contract. The punishment was handed out after Stewart spouted off on Twitter about how unlikely he is to ever be called up from Triple-A. He has appealed the suspension. The Cubs have no intention of releasing Stewart, where they'd be on the hook for his $2 million salary, and are instead trying to negotiate an out in which Stewart becomes a free agent but doesn't receive his salary. Stewart still owns tremendous power potential, but is highly unlikely to make an impact in fantasy leagues this season.

Ian Stewart has been suspended indefinitely without pay. Stewart went on a Twitter rant Monday night, questioning why the Cubs hadn't called him up yet from Triple-A Iowa (where he is currently batting just .164/.279/.345). Cubs president Theo Epstein cited the "loyalty clause" in Stewart's contract and said that the length of the third baseman's suspension has not yet been determined.
