Rotowire
Stevens had his contract selected from Triple-A Albuquerque and is starting Thursday's contest at second base against the Diamondbacks.
Stevens will join the big-league club after posting an impressive .362 average with three home runs, 25 RBI, 31 runs scored and six stolen bases in 40 contests with Triple-A Albuquerque this season.
