Continues strong play since return Lowe went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a loss to the Red Sox on Saturday.

Impact Lowe accounted for the Angels' only extra-base hit and only run when he launched a 437-foot solo homer off Sonny Gray in the first inning. The veteran outfielder spent over a month with Triple-A Salt Lake after getting off to a slow start to the season, but since his return he's playing like he never wants to go back to the minors. Across nine contests after being called back up. Lowe is batting .370 (10-for-27) with two homers, two doubles, five runs, five RBI and a stolen base.

Launches grand slam Sunday Lowe went 1-for-2 with a grand slam in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Athletics.

Impact Lowe came through with the bases loaded in the second inning, crushing a grand slam to right field to provide all the offense the Angels needed in the victory. The 28-year-old was demoted to Triple-A Salt Lake on May 22 due to poor performance, but he was recalled Wednesday and has gone 5-for-12 (.417) in four games since returning. While Mike Trout (hamstring) is sidelined, Lowe figures to split time in center field with the right-handed-hitting Jose Siri, who replaced him as a pinch hitter against left-hander Jose Suarez in the seventh inning.

Picks up second steal Lowe went 1-for-3 with a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Athletics.

Impact This was his second steal of the season. Lowe has gone 4-for-10, albeit with three strikeouts, over three games since he rejoined the Angels' big-league roster. Lowe stayed on the roster when Jose Siri (paternity) was activated Saturday, as Christian Moore was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake instead. Lowe is now batting .200 with a .564 OPS, five home runs, 14 RBI, nine runs scored and two doubles over 144 plate appearances in the majors this season. He'll likely have the chance to stay with the big club until Mike Trout (hamstring) is ready to return.

Impact Lowe opened the season in the strong side of a platoon in left field, but the Angels demoted him to Triple-A on May 22 after he struggled to a .184/.226/.320 slash line with a 29.1 percent strikeout rate over 134 plate appearances. While handling a regular role for Salt Lake over the past month, Lowe has trimmed his strikeout rate to 26.2 percent while producing a 1.014 OPS, though that strong production comes with the caveat that he did his damage in hitter-friendly parks in the Pacific Coast League. He received a call-up to the Angels nonetheless, though Lowe may be in store for only a short-term stay with the big club after everyday center fielder Jose Siri (personal) was placed on the paternity list in a corresponding move.

Optioned to Triple-A The Angels optioned Lowe to Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.

Impact 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.

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.

Impact 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.

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.

Impact Lowe went deep in the second inning, ending a stretch of 16 contests without a homer. He his 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 base-running has all but disappeared due to his struggles with getting on base at all.
