Kyle Lewis is tired of the prefacing statements. He’s tired of the misguided narrative surrounding his name. Kyle Lewis has been playing baseball five or six days a week for almost two full seasons now. It’s time for everyone to put what happened in 2016 behind them.
By now you’ve probably seen Lewis’ name in Minor League Player of the Week headlines. You’ve probably seen his name is gaining helium in prospect circles. Hell, you’ve probably seen Lewis’ name mentioned in newspaper quotes and clippings regarding potential September call-ups.
