Lewis (wrist) went 3-for-25 with a triple and a 0:9 BB:K in his first seven games with Double-A Pensacola since being reinstated from the 7-day injured list Aug. 14.
Lewis had been on the shelf for just over seven weeks due to a fractured wrist. The 23-year-old outfielder has struggled to find his swing since his activation but has still been an above-league-average hitter (104 wRC+) at Double-A this season, slashing .233/.303/.489 with 17 home runs and 14 steals over 73 games.

Marlins' Dillon Lewis: Out with broken wrist
Rotowire
Double-A Pensacola placed Lewis on its 7-day injured list June 27 due to a broken hamate bone in his wrist, FishOnFirst.com reports.
The Marlins haven't issued a target date Lewis' return, but the typical timeline for hamate fractures is 6-to-8 weeks. With that in mind, Lewis appears likely to be sidelined through at least mid-August, with his absence potentially extending into September. Before going down with the injury, the 23-year-old outfielder slashed .240/.315/.512 with 17 home runs and 14 stolen bases over 66 games.
