BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 40% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: The past two seasons have been riddled with injuries for Brandon Lowe, but there's no denying that when healthy, he's one of the premier power hitters at second base. Well, he's healthy to start the 2024 season and reminded us of his abilities by swatting a grand slam on Friday night. Yes, the possibility of an injury is ever-present for any player, but now feels like a good time to bring up the last two times Lowe played a full season's worth of games.
Of course, the 2020 season was only 60 games, but for that 2020-21 stretch Lowe was a top-five 2B in fantasy. As for his more recent performance, his batted-ball metrics last season were pristine. He posted a 91.7 mph average exit velocity and a 47.5% hard-hit rate, so expect continued power production. Simply put, the upside Lowe offers is seldom available on waivers. If he's out there in your league, count yourself lucky, and go grab the 29-year-old slugger.
