Josh Lowe's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Josh Lowe had a huge day at the plate, smacking two homers and notching four RBI in the Rays' 10-3 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday. The homers were the fourth and fifth of the season for Lowe and he now has 12 RBI in 2024. Lowe has been having a slow start to the season after missing time with an oblique injury, hitting for just an 83 OPS+. June has not been the lefty's best month hitting but he now has three HR in his last four games. Lowe has a small bit of positive regression heading his way per his .308 xwOBA, giving him potential upside going forward. Fantasy managers may want to consider adding Lowe and stashing him as a bench option. DFS players may want to consider adding him when facing righties on the road, his best situation in 2024 where he has a 113 wRC+.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Josh Lowe went 2-for-4 with a pair of RBI and solo home run in Tuesday's loss versus the Minnesota Twins. It was a big game for the outfielder that has spent most of the season sidelined and has been in a season-long slump when healthy. Lowe is a regular starter for the Rays, but entering last night was on the verge of losing playing time as he was four for his last 32 entering the contest. Lowe was very productive for the Rays in 2023 with 20 homers, 83 RBI and 32 stolen bases, so the potential is there for Lowe to turn his season around. The hope is that Tuesday's performance can be what gets Lowe going as he can be a very productive all-around outfielder in most formats when he is at the top of his game.

The Tampa Bay Rays reinstated outfielder Josh Lowe (oblique) from the 10-day injured list on the team's off day. It was expected to be a short-term IL stint for Lowe after he suffered a right oblique strain on May 22 for the second time this year. The outfielder, though, only missed two weeks and will now rejoin the team in Miami when the Rays take on the Marlins for a two-game series. Lowe should immediately slot back in atop Tampa Bay's lineup, especially after getting some reps on a rehab assignment this past weekend. If the 26-year-old is floating on the waiver wire right now in your league, make sure to pick him up. He hit .292 with 20 home runs, 83 RBI, and 32 stolen bases in a breakout 2023 campaign last season.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Josh Lowe (oblique) started a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Durham on Friday and went 2-for-4 in his first game. He went 1-for-4 with a triple as the Bulls' designated hitter on Saturday and was set to return to right field on Sunday. Manager Kevin Cash said the team was "very encouraged" by Lowe's first two rehab games and hope to have him back in their starting lineup on Tuesday in Miami against the Marlins. Lowe was initially put on the injured list on May 25, three days after exiting the May 22 game against the Red Sox in the second inning. It's the second time this year he's dealt with a right-oblique strain, although his latest one was much less mild than the Grade 1 strain he suffered in mid-March in spring training. The 26-year-old left has gotten off to a slow start for the Rays this year amidst his injuries, but he needs to be rostered everywhere.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Josh Lowe (oblique) went 2-for-4 with a run scored and two strikeouts while playing right field in a minor-league rehab game on Friday for Triple-A Durham. Lowe is going to play in a couple more games for the Bulls this weekend but is aiming to come off the 10-day injured list to join the Rays on Tuesday for their game against the Miami Marlins. The 26-year-old left-handed slugger is on the injured list for the second time this season already with a mild right-oblique strain but has progressed nicely and is on the cusp of returning for fantasy managers. When Lowe is back in the fold, Jonny DeLuca will return to being more of a bench option. Lowe has gotten off to a slow start in 2024 but needs to remain rostered in all fantasy formats after hitting 20 bombs, driving in 83 and stealing 32 bags in 2023.
