Texas A&M baseball suffered another major blow to its bullpen with the news that Josh Stewart would not return this season.
On Thursday, Aggie head coach Michael Earley broke the news that Stewart would not see the field again in 2025 and could possibly need surgery on his knee.
“I think Stewart, we are probably moving towards the surgery route…He won’t pitch this season.”
Veteran relief pitcher Stewart was expected to step up and guide the relief corps this year. However, hopes were dashed when Stewart left the mound in visible discomfort after facing just one batter, raising concerns about his readiness moving forward.
Stewart proved instrumental in the Aggies’ memorable postseason run, finishing the year with solid stats. 2-2 record, 39 strikeouts, and a solid 4.26 ERA across 25 relief appearances. His presence provided stability and confidence on the mound, making his departure a difficult moment for the Aggies.
The Aggies nation wishes Stewart a swift recovery and eagerly anticipates his return to action, where his veteran leadership and pitching prowess can once again shine.
Texas A&M will travel to face Tennessee on Friday, April 4, at 6:00 p.m. CT. The game will be streamed on SEC Network+.
