Zac Lowther News
Baltimore Orioles pitcher Zac Lowther looked sharp in his return to the big-league team in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Royals. Lowther pitched 6 innings, allowing one run on three hits (including a solo home run) and two walks with two strikeouts. It was the 25-year-old's first appearance with the O's since the beginning of July, as he had been working back from a left shoulder strain he sustained in Triple-A Norfolk. He now owns a 6.91 ERA over a small 14 1/3 IP sample with the O's. It remains to be seen when he will make his next appearance, but Saturday's upcoming double header against the Blue Jays at home would make sense. Either way, fantasy managers should steer clear of Lowther for now.
Baltimore Orioles left-hander Zac Lowther (shoulder) is on the injured list at Triple-A Norfolk with a strained left shoulder. Lowther allowed five runs on four hits (two home runs) in just one-third of an inning in his most recent outing for Norfolk, and his shoulder injury likely played a big part in that meltdown. The 25-year-old southpaw allowed 10 earned runs on 13 hits (two homers) while walking four and striking out 11 in 8 1/3 innings over five appearances (one start) in Baltimore this year in his first taste of major league action, and he also has a rough 6.93 ERA and 1.78 WHIP in 24 2/3 innings over seven starts at Norfolk. The team's No. 9 prospect doesn't have dominant pure stuff, so his left shoulder could be a factor in his season-long struggles in 2021.
Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Zac Lowther was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Monday, according to Joe Trezza of MLB.com. The move comes after Lowther was rocked in his first career start on Saturday, allowing seven runs on seven hits and two walks in 2 1/3 innings of work against the Red Sox. In a corresponding move, the Orioles recalled Keegan Akin, who made his season debut with Norfolk on Friday where he allowed two runs in two innings of work while striking out five.
