Riding pine against lefty Lowe is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays.

Impact After going a collective 7-for-19 with three extra-base hits while starting in each of the past five games, the lefty-hitting Lowe will exit the lineup with southpaw Ryan Yarbrough on the hill for Tampa Bay. Sam Huff steps in for Lowe at first base.

Legs out triple Lowe went 2-for-4 with a walk, a triple, an RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's 11-4 win over Oakland.

Impact Lowe's been a new hitter since being held out of the lineup Wednesday. In the three games since, he's 6-for-11 with a home run, triple, double, four RBI and four runs scored. The power (.373 slugging, .106 ISO) is still nowhere near what one expects from a corner infielder due to just six extra-base hits over his first 38 games.

Involved in win Lowe went 3-for-4 with a double, a stolen base, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 8-5 win over the Athletics.

Impact Lowe responded to getting a day off Wednesday by figuring prominently in the two games since. He knocked in a run, stole a base, then scored over the final three innings when the Rangers turned a 5-2 deficit into a win. The stolen base was the first of the season for Lowe, who stole eight bags in 2021.

Battle Brewing at First Base For Rangers How Texas uses Sam Huff and Nathaniel Lowe at first base in the coming weeks could decide their immediate futures

Responds to day off Lowe went 1-for-3 with a walk and two-run home run in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Athletics.

Impact Lowe, who was held out of the starting lineup against a left-hander Wednesday, was back at first base against a righty Thursday. Somewhat ironically, he homered in the ninth inning off lefty Sam Moll, who was brought in to get Lowe. The homer was the third of the season for Lowe, who's slugging .338 with a .092 ISO.

Sits amid slump Lowe was replaced in Wednesday's lineup by Sam Huff, as the first baseman endures a slump, Sarah Wexler of MLB.com reports.

Impact With the Rangers facing a left-hander, Lowe found himself on the bench. He's batting just .211 with a .584 OPS against southpaws; however, his overall production is not matching the expectations of a corner infielder. For the season, Lowe is slashing .245/.300/.317 with an OPS+ of 82. Whatever issues he's having at the plate may be affecting Lowe in the field. "Sometimes, when the bat isn't going the way you'd like, everything suffers, 'cause that's the game, unfortunately," Texas manager Chris Woodward said of Lowe. "I've seen some really good defenders struggle defensively because they didn't hit." His -3 Outs Above Average rank 38th out of 41 first basemen.

Sitting versus southpaw Lowe is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels.

Impact Lowe started the past four games and will take a seat Wednesday with left-hander Reid Detmers pitching for the Angels. Sam Huff will make his first major-league start at first base in his place.

Takes seat Thursday Lowe isn't starting Thursday's game against the Astros.

Impact Lowe hit a walkoff homer in Wednesday's win over the Angels, but he'll be out of the lineup for the second time in the last three games. Andy Ibanez will shift to first base while Charlie Culberson starts at the hot corner.

Walks off Angels Lowe went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 6-5 extra-inning win over the Angels.

Impact It didn't take long for Lowe to end matters in the 10th inning. He swatted the first pitch he saw from Raisel Iglesias over the fence, scoring the ghost runner ahead of him, to secure the walkoff win for Texas. It was Lowe's second homer and first in 20 games. The first baseman is slugging .315 with an .079 ISO.

On bench Tuesday Lowe will sit Tuesday against the Angels.

Impact Lowe has disappointed at the plate this season, slashing .233/.287/.292 while homering just once in 32 games. He's actually recorded a career-best 24.0 percent strikeout rate, but that's come with a career-low 3.4 percent barrel rate, as he's pounded far too many balls into the ground. Andy Ibanez moves over the first base for the second time in four games Tuesday.

Heads to bench Lowe will sit Saturday against Boston.

Impact Lowe has had a poor start to the season, particularly in the power department, as he's hitting .246/.295/.307 with just a single home run through 30 games. He'll hit the bench Saturday with Andy Ibanez getting the nod at first base.

Sits amid slump Lowe is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Yankees.

Impact With the Rangers concluding a busy weekend in New York with a day game after a doubleheader, Lowe will get a breather for the first time since April 10. Andy Ibanez will step in at first base for Lowe, who could probably benefit from a day to clear his head after going 3-for-37 with 16 strikeouts over his last 10 starts.

Remains hot Lowe went 2-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Friday's 8-1 win over the Atheltics.

Impact Lowe's two-run, opposite-field job in the second inning was all the Rangers would need, but the league's third-ranked team scoring offense (5.31 runs per game) piled it on. The blast extended his hitting streak to eight games (15-for-33, 1.092 OPS), and the two hits leaves the first baseman among MLB leaders in average, ranking second at .412. There's still a question as to whether Lowe will put up slugging numbers traditionally associated with a first baseman -- his GB% is at a career-high 55.8 through 51 at-bats -- but the 26-year-old has outperformed the team's previous option at first, Ronaldo Guzman, who failed to take hold despite many opportunities since 2018.

Extends hit streak Lowe went 3-for-5 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Thursday's 8-6 win over Seattle.

Impact Lowe extended his hitting streak to seven games and has hit safely in 11 of 12 games to open the season. He also knocked in an insurance run in the ninth inning. The first baseman is slashing .396/.431/.458 with seven RBI and three extra-base hits.
