ST PETERSBURG FL. It was in 2022 that we started hearing that Josh Lowe was going to fill some important holes in the Rays roster. He struggled, however, batting .221/.284/.343 with only 2 home runs in 181 at-bats. Although his second call-up went better than his first, he fell short of hopes.
This year the script has flipped, and Josh is hitting .305/.364/.625 with 11 homers in 140 at-bats. Lowe is not only one of the best hitters on the team, he is one of the best hitters in the majors. What’s changed?
New year, new blueprint
The statistical contrasts from this year and last year are more than clear.
