SEATTLE -- Mariners top prospect Kyle Lewis hasn't played in the first six games of the Arizona Fall League as he works to strengthen his surgically repaired right knee, but the young outfielder is expected to begin seeing action for the Peoria Javelinas next week.
Mariners general manager Jerry Dipoto said Lewis is halfway through a previously planned two-week strengthening program on the knee, which required extensive surgery in July 2016 after a home-plate collision while playing for the Short-A Everett AquaSox.
Lewis is currently working out in the gym and training room at the Mariners' facility, before joining the AFL club.
