Rhett Lowder Dealing With Significant Oblique Strain
Rhett Lowder (forearm, oblique) is dealing with a significant oblique strain that he suffered in his second minor-league rehab start with Triple-A Louisville on Thursday. Lowder was working his way back from a right-forearm strain but will now miss additional time due to a significant oblique injury. It means that the 23-year-old top prospect likely won't be an option for the major-league starting rotation until probably late June in a best-case scenario. The former seventh overall selection in 2023 out of Wake Forest has immense fantasy upside, especially after posting a 1.17 ERA and 1.27 WHIP in his first six big-league starts last year, but the Reds aren't going to be rushing one of their best young arms back in what has become an injury-riddled 2025 for Lowder.
