Stewart will take the field for the first time spring Tuesday when the Pirates face the Braves, Bill Brink of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stewart's recovery from the knee surgery he underwent back in September looks to be nearing its end. Although he has apparently been fully healthy all spring, the team has been easing slowly him back into a full workload. Now that he's ready to get back on the field, the Pirates will be hoping the 34-year-old Stewart can provide solid defense and leadership from the catcher position.
