Top-5 Pick
Kyle Lewis’ Pro Comparison
Jason Heyward – Chicago Cubs Outfielder
Where could Lewis end up in the draft?
It’s starting to look like Lewis is the Phillies third option for the number one pick behind Micky Moniak and favorite A.J. Puk. Lewis also looks like the third option for the Reds, who will take Puk if he is available. Cincinnati will probably take Nick Senzel with the second pick, with Delvin Perez and Lewis also in the running. That leaves Atlanta at three, who look like the favorite to take the Mercer outfielder. Lewis would fit exactly what Atlanta needs, which is a power-hitting outfielder, who is close to being major league ready.
