Lowe was traded from the Rays to the Angels in a three-team deal Thursday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lowe recently agreed to a one-year contract with the Rays for a modest $2.6 million to avoid arbitration, but he'll still be headed to a new home. He has struggled to stay healthy the last two seasons, combining to play in only 214 games. His performance has also dipped in that span, though he remains a solid source of power and stolen bases and could benefit from this change of scenery.

Lowe agreed to a one-year, $2.6 million contract with the Rays on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lowe failed to live up to his breakout 2023 campaign again in 2025, ending the season with a .220/.283/.366 slash line alongside 11 homers, 40 RBI and 56 runs scored over 435 plate appearances. He still provides some value as a base-stealing threat, but even his 18 steals this past season marked a three-year low. The 27-year-old has two years of arbitration eligibility remaining.

Lowe is not in the lineup for Thursday's game in Baltimore.

The left-handed-hitting Lowe has seen more opportunities against lefty hurlers this season, but he'll get a day off Thursday as the Orioles send southpaw Cade Povich to the bump. Jake Mangum is handling right field for the Rays.

Lowe is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Right-hander Kevin Gausman has been more effective against lefties than righties both this season and for his career, so the Rays will hold out Lowe and fellow left-handed hitter Brandon Lowe for Wednesday's contest. Everson Pereira will step in for Josh Lowe in right field and will bat sixth.

Lowe went 2-for-3 with two home runs and four RBI in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old outfielder gave the Rays all the offense they would need when he took Jake Irvin deep in the first inning for a three-run blast, but Lowe added a bit of insurance with a solo shot off the right-hander in the fourth. The performance snapped a 22-game homer drought for Lowe, and through 85 contests on the season he's up to nine long balls and 16 steals to go along with a .236/.301/.387 slash line.
