The Pittsburgh Pirates have renewed their relationship with Chris Stewart, reportedly re-signing the free-agent catcher to a new deal.
According to Robert Murray of Baseball Essential, Stewart's new pact with the Pirates is for two years with a third-year team option. Chris Cotillo of MLB Daily Dish confirmed the deal.
The Pirates acquired Stewart in December 2013 from the New York Yankees. He's served as a backup for the Pirates, first to Russell Martin in 2014 and to Francisco Cervelli last year, and he has posted solid numbers across the board.
