CF,RF,DH - Tampa Bay Rays
Roster %
Eligibility
Josh Lowe is not in the Rays lineup on Saturday against Toronto.
Fantasy Impact
Lowe went hitless with three strikeouts in Friday's game. Jonny DeLuca slides over to center field in his absence for Tampa Bay.
Josh Lowe went 1-for-4 in the Rays' 7-5 victory over the Red Sox, contributing with a home run, one run scored, and two RBI.
Fantasy Impact
Despite striking out three times, Lowe's ability to connect for a crucial home run highlights his potential impact in power categories for fantasy managers. His season batting average remains solid at .294, and while his strikeout rate is concerning, he's only played nine games after returning from injury. Fantasy managers should consider Lowe a viable option in deeper leagues, particularly for those in need of home run and RBI production, but be wary of the potential drag on strikeout-sensitive categories.
Lowe was activated from the 10-day injured list Monday and will be available for Monday's opening home series against the White Sox
Fantasy Impact
Lowe was placed on the IL on Opening Day with an oblique strain but later developed a hamstring strain that has sidelined him for about six weeks total. The 26-year-old has hit .231 with three homers over 39 bats with Triple-A Durham this year.
Josh Lowe has been sent on a rehab start with Triple-A Durham on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Lowe was expected to return last weekend, but his return was delayed due to hamstring tightness. He is expected to be evaluated on a daily basis on this rehab stint.
The Rays will not activate Josh Lowe (oblique) from the injured list due to tightness in his right hamstring.
Fantasy Impact
Lowe was originally set to be activated Saturday, but the injury to his right hamstring has set him back. The 26-year-old will undergo an MRI on Monday and the team should then be able to set a timetable for his return.
