Due to licensing restrictions (I believe), FME can only read MrSID files, not write them. See also the list of officially supported formats:

As a workaround, I'm pretty sure you can use FME to write GeoTIFF files and then convert them to MrSID files using the official GeoExpress software from LizardTech.
