Great vid. As a longtime Mariner fan, I knew Lewis was special. But when Ms only gave him a 1 year contract, I knew something was up. Lewis walked so JULIOOOOOOO could run. Hope Lewis can recover and have a great career. But I’m so happy with Julio.
1 year contract? It’s 6 years of service time minimum before free agency lmao. They might’ve payed him for that one year since that’s all they have to but it’s not a one year contract.
What are you talking about a 1 year contract? He was on a rookie contract which is 6 years before free agency
Its amazing how the astros announcers always try to make it out that the mariners hit players. Even though they have hit our players way more often, and very likely put the nail in the coffin on lewis career.
Lewis apparently disagreed with the Mariners on his treatment for the injuries. This rubbed the M's the wrong way, leading them to just wanting him gone, which is one reason they traded him for basically nothing
Love KLew. It is sad. Hope it works out.
nah that picture of marcell ozuna in the intro 😭😭😭😭😭
Great video I subbed
Dude that rookie class was insane lol how did he end up winning unanimously
Kyle Lewis tore his knees twice. Once in in the Minors and once in the Big Leagues
almost 5k views! Keep grinding! make it happen!
you fail to mention that after that knee injury he was never the same. he couldnt even run the bases certainly not play outfield.
wait I just started and you’re telling me he didn’t mention the knee injury lmao
Didn’t have to do Marcell Ozuna like that in the intro 😂
SUBBED!!!
Sad story he could have been a solid player
For a moment, I read this as “Royce Lewis” and I was like, “WUT? If Royce played all year, he’d be ROY!” Then I realized it’s “Kyle,” not “Royce.” Let’s hope Royce has more success.
Took a shot on Lewis? He was a 1st round pick! He was supposed to be a stud
The hobby was at its peak just a couple of years ago?
I highly doubt it changed that much
The only difference was people were buying all the available cards at the time during COVID
2023 playoff squad lmao
Every injury is different but I am blown away that his knee injury derailed his career the way it did. I tore my meniscus and partially tore my ACL as a pro skier in march 2007 and was back skiing by July of that year. Rehabbed and hasn't really been too much (relatively speaking) since.
KLewis has such a sweet swing for a righty
lol... 2023 playoff roster. Somebody spoke a little too soon. Turns out there was no playoff roster for Mariners in 2023.
I will always wonder what he could’ve been with healthy knees.
AAAA type player.
"2023 playoff squad" fucking twist the knife a little more
I have 10 Kyle Lewis rookie cards
Shoot I had a couple hundred, glad I sold most before he was traded. I had high hopes for him, hope we see him on this Diamondbacks squad soon
He is KILLING it in Triple A he is putting up INSANE numbers I don't know how they don't bring him up.
Here are his Triple A numbers
For the month of July he hit .404 Avg for the month & .475 OB%
For the month of August he hit .407 Avg for the month & .522 OB%
So far in September he's Batting .481 Avg & .516 OB%
For the whole year in Triple A his stats are 237 At Bats - Avg .371 - HR 16 - RBI 77 - OB% .459 -
OPS 1.100
@@kevm243 as a Seattle fan I went to watch him play because the aces are my home team and first AB he hits a grand slam. Unfortunately I only recorded him scoring but still a cool moment to watch
That's baseball for you. Here today, gone today.
Got another contract with the Mariners? All teams get 6 years of MLB control for players they draft.
Keon Broxton only played the 29 games for the Mariners that he did because they just needed a body.
lol ozuna's picture
An OPS of 132 will get you banned from the game.
(Yes i know you ment OPS+) 🤪
He’s never put up great numbers in the MLB, even when he won ROTY his numbers were very questionable.
I don’t consider this a downfall.
Otherwise every minor league player has had a downfall that couldn’t make it in the MLB
2020 wasn’t a good season to judge people off of. Plus he was only good for that short season.
He was the season before. Got called up in September of 2019 and raked.
2023 playoff squad? lol
It's never NOT going to be creepy to see cardboard cut-outs of people in the stands.
He was never the kinda guy who was really gonna get by on his bat alone. He wasn't that good of a hitter, slightly above average on a good day. After that knee injury he's a career DH at best cuz he can't run for crap anymore. I don't know if the damage to his knee was just that bad or if the doc f*cked something up in the surgery but he's not the same player. The problem with him basically being a DH is that teams can find another option who's probably a better hitter. He'll likely get by playing professional ball somewhere but i don't see him ever really being a full time mlb player again, maybe he gets a shot with AZ but i don't see it amounting to much.
lol 2023 playoff squad, that did not age well...
