Lowe is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Astros, Steve Carney of StPeteNine.com reports.
After going 3-for-21 at the dish over his last five starts, Lowe will take a seat for the first time since July 26 while the Astros send southpaw Framber Valdez to the hill. The Rays will counter with a right-handed-heavy lineup featuring Curtis Mead at designated hitter in place of the lefty-hitting Lowe.
