About Lewie »

Lewie Pollis is a brilliant, witty, and exceptionally handsome high school senior from outside of Cleveland, Ohio.

An Indians fan since before he can remember, Lewie adopted the Red Sox as his second-favorite team in 2003 because it was an effective outlet through which to channel his hatred for the Yankees.

He got his first subscription to Baseball Weekly when he was four. As early as his T-ball days, Lewie would sit in the dugout and mentally calculate his teammates' batting averages while he waited to bat. While he no longer plays the actual sport in an organized league, he is an incredible fantasy baseball player. Someday Lewie will be GM of a major league team--unless he becomes President.

In addition to reading and writing about baseball, Lewie spends his time reading Watchmen and is on the Editorial Board of Green Pages, the United States Green Party's official publication.

If you want him to read a baseball article, feel free to post it and he'll check it out when he gets a chance. However, Lewie cares very little for other sports and will not read posts about them.

    Lewie Pollis commented on How Much Did Being A Catcher Help Joe Mauer Win AL MVP?

    A good catcher beats a good first baseman. It's as simple as that. Catchers are more valuable because harder to replace--not everyone do what they do....
