In this story:


Cincinnati Reds infield prospect Sal Stewart and catching prospect Alfredo Duno have been selected to play in the All-Star Futures Game in Atlanta.

The Futures Game is an annual seven-inning exhibition that includes at least one prospect from every organization.

Stewart is having a tremendous season with Double-A Chattanooga, slashing .327/.390/.498 with 27 extra-base hits in 71 games.

The 21-year-old is the Reds' third-ranked prospect according to MLB Pipeline.

"Stewart’s advanced approach has been apparent from day one of his pro career," MLB Pipeline wrote. "He carried a miniscule 15.7 percent career strikeout rate into the 2025 season and he’s walked as often as he’s struck out (138 BB vs. 139 Ks). He makes a lot of hard contact and can send line drives to all fields consistently against all kinds of pitching."

Duno is slashing .269/.422/.453 with 25 extra-base hits in 64 games with Low-A Daytona this season.

The 19-year-old is the Reds' seventh-ranked prospect.

Reds prospect Cam Collier played in the game last season and was named the 2024 Futures Game MVP.
