Ross Report - '25 C Carter Stewart (Jesuit)


Alex Ross
Area Scout

Alex Ross is an experienced scout with an acute knowledge of the baseball in the region. Currently residing in Kirkland, Wash, Ross helps bolster the Prep Baseball Washington and Oregon staff in addition to his current duties as an associate scout for the Cincinnati Reds. 

The Kirkland native enjoyed a collegiate playing career that began at Bellevue College and eventually took him through a journey that earned him an NAIA National Championship in 2013 during his time at Faulkner University in Alabama. That championship season came just a year after he was selected in the 34th round of the 2012 MLB Draft by his hometown team, the Seattle Mariners, the same organization he would go on to work for in 2016, within its Scout Development program.

From there, Ross eventually served as the Mariners’ northwest area scout until 2020, covering Washington and Oregon namely, in addition to Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Alaska, and Western Canada. Ross signed three players to Major League contracts during his time with the Mariners, two of whom are still active: Wyatt Mills, a Gonzaga product and Spokane native, and Adam Macko, a seventh-round pick in 2019 out of an Alberta high school.

Ross brings his acute eye to Prep Baseball events as well as HS scouting coverage during the spring. Ross report gives an in-depth look at prospects who possess current ability or could be on the brink of making significant jumps. 

ROSS REPORT

'25 C Carter Stewart (Jesuit)

"Left handed hitting catcher with a large frame and athletic build. Repeatable and compact stroke from the left side that produces line drive contact. Has some natural loft to his path and has a chance to grow into some power with consistent results. There's some polish to his receiving and actions behind the dish. Good release and footwork throwing to bags with some consistent carry on sub 2 pop times. Stewart put on a good showing with lots of 90+ exit velocities and has a chance to be a mover this spring if he can carry over the performance to his spring season. Definitely a prospect to keep tabs on with the left handed bat profile at a premium position." Alex Ross

Overall, Stewart has a highly coveted profile as a left-handed hitting catcher with the potential for his bat to be a carrying tool at the next level. The arm strength gives him a chance to stay at C long-term and he has always been a quality receiver. The added strength in recent years has significant helped the tools take his game to the next level
