WTM’S PIRATE PLAYER PROFILES

Lewis is a big right-handed pitcher who sits 87-88 MPH with his fastball, touching 90.  He pitches off his fastball, but also throws a changeup in the upper 70s, and a curveball in the low-to-mid 70s.  Lewis had some great numbers pitching for Wabash Valley, posting a 1.84 ERA in 88 innings, with 93 strikeouts.  He had a low 0.88 WHIP, thanks to great control.  Lewis has a lot of options as a JuCo player.  He could return for another year at Wabash and improve his stock, or he could try to catch on with a Division I college and re-enter the draft after his junior year.  For that reason, he might be a hard guy to sign.
