Nathaniel Lowe News
Texas Rangers first baseman Nathaniel Lowe went 2-for-4 with a double in Wednesday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Lowe has extended his hitting streak to six games, with four multi-hit games in that span. Lowe is currently batting .290 with five home runs and 16 doubles. Lowe only has one home run in May, but he's gone hitless only twice in the entire month. Lowe should continue his success as the Rangers begin their weekend series against the Baltimore Orioles. In 18 career games at Camden Yards, Lowe has hit .343 with six home runs and 17 RBI. Lowe believes the Rangers are legitimate contenders, and his play is a big reason why.
Texas Rangers first baseman Nathaniel Lowe had a solid outing in the win over the Oakland A's. The 27-year-old went 2-for-4 while adding three runs and an RBI. The Rangers put up 18 runs in this one, so fantasy managers received plenty of production on Saturday. Unfortunately, Lowe struck out twice. However, he's amassed six runs in his last three appearances, which helps soften the blow. That said, the veteran will look to close out the series strong on Sunday versus Kyle Muller, with the lefty surrendering 13 hits and six runs over four innings in his previous start.
Texas Rangers first baseman Nathaniel Lowe is slashing .254/.289/.437 with two home runs, 14 RBI, and nine runs scored across 76 plate appearances in 2023. He has collected a hit in 13 of his last 14 games and driven in 11 runs during that span. The 27-year-old will look to keep things going against Kansas City Royals right-hander Brady Singer in Wednesday's matchup. Singer was shelled in his previous start, allowing eight runs on 10 hits and zero walks over five innings against the Braves. Lowe is a must-start in season-long leagues and makes an intriguing DFS option at his current $4,800 DraftKings price tag. Lowe is hitting .400 with a home run and three RBI in his career against Singer.

The Texas first-baseman officially broke out in 2022, slashing .302/.358/.492 with 27 homers, 74 runs, and 76 RBI. He did most of that damage after July 1st, as he hit 17 homers on a .320/.381/.533 slash line after the calendar flipped to the hot months. The good news is that he's a very mature hitter with a low 22.9% strikeout rate and a 75% contact rate. That turns into a lot of balls in play for him, which is always a good sign. The downside is that 9.9% barrel rate is short of great levels and he continued to hit a lot of balls on the ground (48% GB%). That ground-ball rate did come way down from his 2021 mark of 54.5% - so that's very good news. He will have to keep that GB% near 45% to flirt with 30 homers again, so the smart money might be on the under in terms of his homer heights next season. He also is not a guy that's going to steal many bases, which is a big downside in roto leagues. The reason to draft Lowe at his ADP of 100 is the relative safety you get from him. There will be plenty of RBI opportunities for him in that Rangers lineup this year, and his plate discipline skills raise his floor considerably. Lowe is a fine but unsexy 1B pick at a bit of an inflated price for 2023.
