Lewis (shoulder) will throw 65 pitches in a rehab start Monday at Double-A Frisco, Stefan Stevenson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Monday marks Lewis' second rehab outing since landing on the disabled list with a lat strain in June. Lewis allowed one earned run over 2.2 innings in his first appearance, but he's expected to stretch out to closer to four innings Monday. If all goes well, Lewis should remain on track for a return in early-to-mid September.

EDGE Analysis

The move is contingent on Lewis making it through Monday's rehab outing without incident, and would put him in line to face the Astros in his first start. Before making an official determination though, he's set to throw about 65 pitches at either Double-A Frisco or Triple-A Round Rock in his second -- and potentially final -- rehab start.

EDGE Analysis

On the heels of a successful 41-pitch standard bullpen session Tuesday, Lewis is now slated for one final test before heading out on a minor league rehab assignment. The peripherals don't support an ERA anywhere close to Lewis' current 3.21 mark, but he was one of the Rangers' more reliable starters before going down and there's no doubt that he'll have a rotation spot waiting for him.
