Nathaniel Lowe News
Texas Rangers first baseman Nathaniel Lowe went 2-for-4 with two walks, three RBI, and two runs scored in Wednesday's 12-11 victory over the Athletics in Game 2 of their doubleheader. Lowe now has a six-game hit streak going, during which time he is 11-for-25 (.440) with three doubles, eight RBI, five runs scored, and a 6:5 BB:K. It appears he's fully recovered after missing the first couple weeks of the season with an oblique injury. The 28-year-old gets a mouthwatering matchup in his next game on Friday in Colorado against LHP Austin Gomber, whom he is 4-for-7 off of lifetime, including a double and a home run.
Texas Rangers first baseman Nathaniel Lowe clubbed his first home run of the season on Thursday despite taking a 4-3 loss at the hands of the rival Seattle Mariners. The 28-year-old appeared in only his fifth game of the season due to an oblique injury suffered late in spring training but he's been off to a hot start in a small sample. Lowe is hitting .294 (5-for-17) with a homer, a double, three walks, three runs scored, and .929 OPS across his first 20 trips to the plate. Armed with pop and plenty of patience at the plate, Lowe hit .262 with 17 home runs, 89 runs, 82 RBI, a 12.8% BB%, and a .774 OPS while appearing in 161 games in the 2023 season, the third straight season in which he has appeared in at least 157 contests.
Texas Rangers first baseman Nathaniel Lowe (oblique) was activated off the injured list today and is in the Rangers lineup for their tilt against the Atlanta Braves. Lowe has been out since early March after experiencing side tightness during spring training. The 28-year-old will bat fifth in his season debut against Braves right-hander Charlie Morton. Lowe is projected to hit for a .269/.352/.431 slash line in 2024 and joins a Rangers lineup that continues to be one of the most productive lineups in the majors. Fantasy managers should look to snag Lowe if possible. With Lowe active, expect decreased playing time for Jared Walsh going forward.

Texas Rangers first baseman, Nathaniel Lowe, is coming off another very productive season, which resulted in a World Series ring for the organization. Lowe slashed .262/.360/.414 with 17 home runs in 724 plate appearances in 2023. He posted a 114 wRC+, marking all five seasons in the MLB with over 100 wRC+. His walk rates are among the best in baseball, ranking in the top 10 percentile in both walk and chase percentages. Hitting in the heart of a potent Rangers' lineup, opposing pitchers often had to attack Lowe as they pitched around other sluggers like Corey Seager and Adolis Garcia. While none of Lowe's batted ball metrics are significantly above average, and his career high in home runs is 27, he has consistently been a plus in the lineup and is one of the better defensive first basemen in the MLB. Heading into 2024, Lowe is expected to remain the everyday first baseman for Texas, thanks to his defense and productivity against left- and right-handed pitching. Based on what we've seen over the start of his career, Lowe should be in for another productive 2024 season. Update: Lowe is expected to be sidelined until mid-April due to a right oblique strain. ATC projects Lowe to slash .270/.354/.434 with 18 home runs, 70 RBI, 72 runs, and two stolen bases over 584 plate appearances. Lowe becomes a risk with the oblique injury and is mainly an option once the top 25 first basemen have been drafted.
