For Miami Marlins supporters eager to see what the hype surrounding Dillon Lewis is all about, Sunday presents the perfect opportunity. Lewis, an outfielder in the Marlins' farm system, is the only Miami prospect chosen to suit up for the National League squad in the Arizona Fall League's Fall Stars Game—the circuit's equivalent of an All-Star contest. The matchup features the top players from NL-affiliated teams against their American League counterparts.
Although Lewis has spent just one year in the Marlins organization, he has already demonstrated a knack for reaching base, crossing the plate, and developing power at the dish. Sunday's game gives him a platform to impress, even if he gets only a single at-bat.
How to Watch
The Fall Stars Game is scheduled for Sunday at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick, with first pitch set for 8 p.m. ET. The game will be televised on MLB Network and streamed on MLB.com. Rosters were finalized by Major League Baseball earlier this week.
Background on Lewis
Lewis joined the Marlins as part of the return package when Miami dealt starting pitcher Ryan Weathers to the New York Yankees in January. Along with Lewis, the Marlins received center fielder Brendan Jones, first baseman Dylan Jasso, and shortstop Juan Matheus. The Yankees had selected Lewis in the 13th round of the 2024 MLB Draft out of Queens College in North Carolina.
After a brief stint at Class-A Tampa, Lewis played his first full professional season in 2025, splitting time between Tampa and High-A Hudson Valley. He posted a slash line of .237/.321/.445 with 22 home runs and 75 RBI. Given Miami's deep pool of outfield prospects, Lewis still has work to do to separate himself from the pack.
His performance at Double-A Pensacola earlier this year was steady, as he slashed .242/.302/.460 with 18 home runs and 48 RBI. He also contributed 12 doubles, four triples, and 20 stolen bases, marking his second consecutive season with at least 20 steals. With Glendale in the Arizona Fall League, the goal was to get him more at-bats and see if he could improve his slash line. He succeeded in that regard, hitting .277/.338/.415 with one home run and 13 RBI through Saturday's action. However, he stole only one base and missed an opportunity to sharpen his plate discipline, recording 23 strikeouts against just seven walks—a trend that has followed him throughout his career.
Lewis has positioned himself for a potential assignment to Triple-A Jacksonville to begin 2027. If Major League spring training starts on time, a non-roster invitation is likely.
