Brandon Lowe 2024 Fantasy Baseball Outlook: Staying Healthy Is Key
9 months agoTampa Bay Rays second baseman Brandon Lowe hit 21 home runs in just 109 games in 2023. However, his NFBC ADP is 271. That is not because of his talent or capabilities but his inability to stay healthy. Lowe has been limited to 174 of the Rays' regular season games the last two seasons. He missed most of 2022 due to back issues, and his 2023 season ended prematurely after fracturing his kneecap. This has been a bummer for Rays fans and fantasy baseball managers because he is among the best offensive second basemen in MLB when healthy. The 29-year-old slashed .247/.340/.523 with 39 HR, 97 runs scored, and 99 RBI in 2021. Fortunately, reports have revealed that Lowe feels as good as he did in his career year. This is undoubtedly a positive sign. If he can play an entire season in 2024, he could be a top-10 second baseman in fantasy baseball. Lowe should bounce back some in 2024 as ATC projects the veteran to slash .237/.327/.448 with 22 home runs and six stolen bases over 477 plate appearances.
