Shannon Stewart's MLB career began with the Blue Jays in 1995, after their back-to-back titles, but still, an era where the SkyDome was rocking.

Stewart worked his way to starting at Center in 1998, swiping 51 bases with a .279 Batting Average.  His basepath acumen dipped afterward, but Stewart batted over .300 for the rest of his four-and-a-half years in Toronto and showed good power with six straight 10-Home Run years.  

The Blue Jays were no longer a contender in the early 2000s, and Stewart was traded to Minnesota for their playoff run.  Stewart collected 1,082 Hits, and batted .298 with 74 Home Runs with 166 Stolen Bases for Toronto.
