Angels' Josh Lowe: Optioned to Triple-A
The Angels optioned Lowe to Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.
Lowe has underperformed during his first season in Anaheim, slashing .184/.226/.320 with five homers, 14 RBI and eight runs scored across 134 plate appearances. The Angels will now send him down to the minors to get back on track, and Wade Meckler will come up from Salt Lake to fill the active roster spot and possibly take over as the big club's primary left fielder.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Not in Friday's lineup
Lowe is not in the Angels' starting lineup against the Rangers on Friday, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.
Lowe will be on the bench for Friday's series opener while Wade Meckler, Mike Trout and Jo Adell start in the outfield from left to right. Lowe has gone 9-for-28 (.321) with one home run and four RBI over his last 11 games.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Lifts homer in loss
Lowe went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Athletics.
Lowe went deep in the second inning, ending a stretch of 16 contests without a homer. He hit just .159 in that span and is batting a meager .182 with a .547 OPS across 130 plate appearances this season. The outfielder has added five homers, 14 RBI, eight runs scored, one stolen base and two doubles. He continues to fill a platoon role, but he doesn't offer enough upside to have much appeal in fantasy, especially since his value on the basepaths has dwindled.

Angels' Josh Lowe: On bench against lefty
Lowe is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Guardians, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Lowe will hit the bench for the second day in a row while the Angels face another lefty starter (Joey Cantillo) to begin their three-game set in Cleveland. Bryce Teodosio will cover left field in place of Lowe, who has gone 1-for-15 with zero walks and five strikeouts against southpaws on the season.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Taking seat in series finale
Lowe is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
After making starts in each of the Halos' last seven games, the left-handed-hitting Lowe will head to the bench Wednesday while the White Sox send southpaw rookie Noah Schultz to the bump. Bryce Teodosio will check in for Lowe in left field and will bat ninth.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Homers in loss Tuesday
Lowe went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the White Sox.
Lowe's homer in the eighth inning off Jordan Leasure was his fourth of the season and first since April 17. The 28-year-old has really struggled at the plate in his first season with the Halos, slashing .192/.250/.370 with the four long balls, 10 RBI, seven runs scored, one stolen base and a 5:22 BB:K across 81 plate appearances. After swiping 75 bases for the Rays from 2023-25, Lowe was expected to be a source of power and speed from the left side for the Angels. He has a career-low 26.5 percent hard-hit rate.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Idle against southpaw
Lowe is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.
Lowe will take a seat for the fifth time in six games, with each of his absences coming against left-handed starting pitchers. In an effort to optimize Lowe's production, the Angels seem content to continue deploying the left-handed-hitting outfielder in the strong side of a platoon with Bryce Teodosio.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Knocks three hits Sunday
Lowe went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Sunday's 11-9 extra-inning loss to the Royals.
Lowe was lifted for a pinch runner in the seventh inning, with Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register noting that the outfielder may have tweaked his calf. However, Fletcher added that it might have been a planned replacement, and the Angels didn't provide an update on Lowe after the game, so it's safe to assume he's fine until information to the contrary surfaces. Lowe's big game lifted his average to .188 on the year, and he's added a .583 OPS, three home runs, nine RBI, six runs scored and a stolen base across 77 plate appearances. He is primarily working on the strong side of a platoon in left field, and a run of four straight left-handed starters against the Angels had limited Lowe to a bench role for much of the past week.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Idle against LHP once again
Lowe is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
The left-handed-hitting Lowe will be held out of the starting nine for the second straight day while the Angels face off against another left-handed starting pitcher (Eric Lauer). In Lowe's absence, Bryce Teodosio will pick up another start in the outfield, this time covering center while Mike Trout occupies the designated-hitter spot.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Lifts two-run homer
Lowe went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 8-0 win over the Padres.
Lowe provided the Angels' last runs of the game with his fifth-inning blast off San Diego reliever David Morgan. Lowe has hit safely in three straight games while striking out three times in that span, an improvement from his rough showing early in the season. He's still hitting a paltry .167 with a .598 OPS, three homers, nine RBI, eight runs scored and a stolen base over 18 contests.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Idle against lefty
Lowe is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.
The Reds are sending a southpaw starter (Andrew Abbott) to the hill for the second straight day, so the left-handed-hitting Lowe will remain on the bench in the series finale in Cincinnati. Bryce Teodosio will receive the starting nod in left field.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Slugs homer Friday
Lowe went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and a double in Friday's 6-2 win against Houston.
Lowe broke a 1-1 tie with his three-run blast in the second inning. It was the veteran outfielder's first home run as a member of the Angels, who acquired him in a trade with Tampa Bay in mid-January. Lowe has shown the ability to hit for power before -- he swatted 20 home runs with an .835 OPS over 501 plate appearances with Tampa Bay in 2023 -- but he was limited by injuries over the subsequent two campaigns. Fantasy managers who roster Lowe are likely banking on a change of scenery being able to help him return to that 2023 form.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Slugs grand slam in spring grame
Lowe went 2-for-4 with a grand slam and a run-scoring triple Wednesday in a Cactus League win against the Angels.
Lowe was limited to the DH spot again as he continues to be cautious following his return from an oblique injury, but he looked very healthy swinging the bat and running the bases. The veteran outfielder drove home a run with a triple in the first inning and then pushed the Angels ahead for good with a grand slam in the seventh. Lowe reportedly played the outfield for a portion of a minor-league spring game Tuesday, and the expectation is that he'll be ready to play in the field for the Angels by Opening Day.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Plays outfield Tuesday
Lowe (oblique) said he played the outfield Tuesday for a portion of a minor-league game on the back fields of camp, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
After sustaining an oblique injury in late February, Lowe was held out of action for more than two weeks before returning to the Angels' Cactus League lineup Saturday as a designated hitter. He'll make another start as a DH in Wednesday's split-squad game against the Reds, but Lowe doesn't seem worried about the oblique injury preventing him from playing the outfield on a more frequent basis once the season gets underway.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Strikes out three times in return
Lowe (oblique) served as the Angels' designated hitter and went 0-for-3 with a walk and three strikeouts in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Mariners in Cactus League play.
Lowe checked back into the spring lineup for the first time since Feb. 25 after a sore left oblique kept him out of action. The Angels eased Lowe back in by having him serve as a DH, but he should get some exposure to the corner outfield in the coming days. Lowe has just one hit through 10 at-bats in the Cactus League, but regardless of how he performs over the rest of the spring, he's likely to begin the season in a strong-side platoon role for the Angels.

Angels' Josh Lowe: Takes part in intrasquad game
Lowe (oblique) stepped in for approximately eight plate appearances Wednesday during an intrasquad game and also ran the bases, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Lowe last played in a Cactus League game Feb. 25, but he took a monumental step forward in his recovery from a sore left oblique by facing live pitching for the first time since suffering the injury. The Angels plan on having Lowe play in minor-league games on the back fields of camp before reinserting him into the Cactus League lineup, but barring any further setbacks with his oblique over the next two weeks, he'll be on track to play Opening Day.

Angels' Josh Lowe: To hit in minors games this weekend
Lowe (oblique) is likely to begin hitting in minor-league games this weekend, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Lowe has been limited to only three Cactus League contests because of a left oblique issue. Even with the missed time, the Angels believe Lowe can get in enough at-bats on the backfields to prepare for Opening Day. That said, with Lowe's history of oblique problems, a setback is possible.
