6 years agoTampa Bay Rays first baseman Nathaniel Lowe is being sent back to the minors on Wednesday. This is interesting news, as manager Kevin Cash has had nothing but good things to say about him and he has been off to a solid start. However, the Rays will need a spot for outfielder Austin Meadows (thumb), who could be activated Friday. In his 35 at-bats with the Rays, Lowe hit .257/.289/.314 with two doubles and 10 strikeouts. Lowe should certainly be expected to be recalled at some point this season, as his minor league profile would suggest he can be a big help to the Rays down the road. In 2018 across three levels of the minors, he hit .330/.416/.568 with 27 homers. He’s a solid stash in deeper leagues and probably can be dropped in shallow leagues for now until the Rays have room for him.--Zach Alexander
