Agreed, if it's a minor league deal I'm fine with it, but idk if I can take another season with him as the "everyday" 3B... I'd rather throw Vitters out there and let him go than strictly Stewart.

Dear god, please be a minor league deal... He sucks. However, if he does comeback and destroy the baseball next season and proves me wrong, I'll gladly eat crow.
Kyle is gonna have a conniption.

Minor League deal and letting him potentially compete for a roster spot and the starting job is fine. Realisticly whoever they bring in for third is either going to not have much history there or is a question mark. So it makes sense to have as much depth as possible there.

I just don't get the point seeing as how he's not even an upgrade to Luis Valbuena

If it's a minor league deal, fine.
However, there were some rumblings that a few teams were interested in him, so he probably got some assurance he'd get a chance to compete for a spot.
We're running out of places for interesting new players.

Meh not too bad of a contract. That's dirt cheap. bumps our payroll up to around 8 dollars now.
