As the Texas Rangers prepare for the Seattle Mariners tonight, they do so with a pitcher that has not seen action at the major league level since July of 2012: Colby Lewis. Although I don’t expect him to be exactly the same pitcher he was before all his surgeries, just the fact that he made it back to the major league level is really saying something.
“I guess I am kind of a test, but I don’t look at it that way. This is just another thing that I’ve had to overcome in my career.” Lewis said according to the Dallas Morning News.
It is a test, and it is pretty amazing that, after all this time off, Colby Lewis has officially made it back. No one knows how far into the game he will make it or how effective he will be, but it will be fun to see him on the mound and pitching tonight. Colby Lewis has over come a lot to get back, and this isn’t the first time he has had to do that.
So what is my prediction? Glad you asked.
Colby Lewis:
5.2 innings pitched
6 hits
1 walk
3 runs
1 strikeout
I think the Texas Rangers win tonight’s game. That is my official prediction for tonight’s game. So what is your prediction? Leave a comment here below, on my twitter, facebook or google+ page.
