Josh Lowe Returns to the Outfield on Friday
Los Angeles Angels outfielder Josh Lowe (oblique) is starting in left field and will hit fifth in Friday's Cactus League game against the Chicago White Sox, according to Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register. It's the first time that Lowe will play the outfield since injuring his oblique. Lowe had been serving as the designated hitter to ease his way back into action, and he even hit a grand slam in a Cactus League game on Wednesday. The 28-year-old left-handed slugger looks to be just fine for Opening Day next week. Staying healthy has been an issue for Lowe in his five-year major-league career, playing in over 108 games just one time. He hit 20 home runs and stole 32 bases in his best season in 2023 with the Tampa Bay Rays, but he has just 21 combined home runs in the last two seasons while battling various oblique injuries. If he can stay healthy, Lowe has clear 20-20 potential in his new home in Anaheim as he likely rotates between outfield and designated-hitter duties.
