FRED LEWIS RUMORS & GOSSIP
Mets News: Fred Lewis Also Chopped From 40-Man Roster
Yesterday, the Mets announced that they have removed catcher Rob Johnson from the 40-man roster and that he is now a free agent. Johnson was actually eligible for arbitration with the Mets, but now that becomes a moot point. He appeared in 17 games for the Mets in 2012 and hit .250 with four RBI in 52 at-bats.
Today, Adam Rubin of ESPN New York reports that outfielder Fred Lewis...

MMO Mailbag: Why Don’t The Mets Call Up Fred Lewis?
I received an interesting question from @GWNY on Twitter who asked me:
Why don’t the Mets call up Fred Lewis to play LF?
It’s a great question and one we’ve grappled with a couple of times in our Minor League comment threads this season. The answer as to why Lewis is still languishing in Buffalo is kind of a mystery to me.
One could say they don’t want to add him to the 40...

Mets sign INF Brad Emaus and OF Fred Lewis to Minor League Deals
The Mets added a pair of potentially useful pieces signing infielder Brad Emaus and outfielder Fred Lewis to minor league deals.
Lewis plays all three outfield positions, and has a solid .780 OPS career against right-handed pitchers. Put another way: if the Mets were looking to set Scott Hairston up in a platoon in left or right field, Lewis would be a perfectly reasonable guy...

Emaus, 26, has signed to start 2012 with the Laredo Lemurs of the American Association before joining the Mets. In his 14 games with the Mets in 2011, Emaus struggled, going just 6-for...
Indians cut veterans Guzman, Lewis
Veteran infielder Cristian Guzman has been released by the Cleveland Indians, who also reassigned outfielder Fred Lewis to their minor league camp.
Both were non-roster invitees to camp and neither had a good spring. Guzman batted .217 with no extra-base hits in 10 games before straining a hamstring. Lewis hit .200 with one double in nine games. Neither drove in a run.
Guzman,...

So long, Fred Lewis
So long, Fred Lewis and Chad Reineke. We barely knew ya’.
Both players have elected to explore free agency, which is not surprising. Reineke, of course, is just organizational filler. Lewis, on the other hand, can be a useful part for a team that uses him correctly.
No matter; Lewis was not and is not the answer to the left field conundrum that faces the Reds. How the club addresses...
