Rhett Lowder
2025 Player Outlook
Lowder posted a 1.17 ERA (3.10 FIP) in six starts with the club last season, but a 10.9 percent walk rate pushed his WHIP up to 1.27. That walk rate was nearly double what he put forth in the minors, and the strikeouts completely disappeared at the big-league level (17.2 K%). He also didn’t generate ground balls at the same clip he did in the minors, and while he’s a pretty notable name in terms of up-and-coming pitchers, Cincinnati will likely start him in the minors. However, I don’t envision him being down there long. Keep his name on your radar, as there’s a lot of potential with the 22-year-old righty. Lowder should get about 100 IP with the Reds at the MLB level this year, and he’ll be an upside arm worth rostering when that time comes.
