Kyle Lewis Non-Tendered By Diamondbacks
1 year agoThe Arizona Diamondbacks non-tendered outfielder Kyle Lewis on Friday, making him a free agent this offseason. Lewis, the former 11th overall pick by the Seattle Mariners in 2016, was looking like a future star when he won the American League Rookie of the Year in the shortened 2020 season by hitting .262 (54-for-206) with 11 home runs, 28 RBI and five stolen bases in 58 games for the M's. Since then, he's hit a combined .203/.281/.342 with nine long balls, six doubles, 18 RBI, two steals and 23 runs scored in 70 games at the major-league level for Seattle and Arizona. The 28-year-old outfielder only played in 16 games for the Snakes in 2023, going 8-for-51 (.157) with a homer and two RBI. Lewis will look for a fresh start elsewhere in 2024.
