Lewis was brought back earlier this week. He’ll be a special assistant to General Manager Jon Daniels. No doubt, a lot of fans would love for him to be the Texas Rangers pitching coach.
According to Gerry Fraley, Lewis’ most important role is working with minor league pitchers. That’s definitely a good role for him. It may his first step on a possible journey to one day becoming the official pitching coach. Lewis can mentor and teach young pitchers for preparations for call-ups to the majors.
During the 2010 World Series, Lewis became the first Texas Rangers pitcher to win a World Series game.
