Rhett Lowder goes six strong in no-decision

Rhett Lowder

CIN Starting Pitcher #25

Player Stats

Rhett Lowder did a nice job in a no-decision against the Pirates on Thursday night, allowing just two runs on five hits across six innings.

Lowder struck out five batters on the evening and did not allow a base on balls. He kept the Pirates off the board through the first four innings, then they scratched out a run against him on a sacrifice fly in the fifth. Lowder also served up a solo homer to Brandon Lowe in the sixth. The 24-year-old hurler got 12 whiffs on 90 pitches on the day, posting a solid CSW of 31 percent. Lowder now sits at 3-7 on the season with an uninspiring 5.42 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and a 70/37 K/BB ratio over 83 innings. He’ll try to turn things around when he squares off against the Athletics on Wednesday.

Rhett Lowder was lit up for seven runs in 3 1/3 innings by the Dodgers in Wednesday’s loss.

It’s the second straight outing in which Lowder has allowed seven runs, and he’s now 6-10 with a 5.81 ERA for the season. Unfortunately, he’s due to go up against the Dodgers again next week and likely the Cubs after that.

Rhett Lowder surrendered seven runs — six earned — in four-plus innings Friday against the Brewers.

The last three runs came in the fifth. That inning started with a single and a walk before William Contreras hit what looked like a double play ball. Unfortunately, Elly De La Cruz booted it, and Lowder was lifted. All three runners then scored with Sam Moll in the game. So, Lowder didn’t deserve that, but it’s not like he was any good beforehand. He ended up with just two strikeouts and four walks. He’ll take a 5.43 ERA into next week’s outing against the Dodgers.

Rhett Lowder allowed five runs over three innings in a victory Friday versus the Cubs.

Thanks to a six-run top of the sixth, Lowder got a win in a game in which he was outperformed by the opposing starter (David Peterson allowed two runs over five innings). Lowder went 3-1 in August despite a middling 4.34 ERA and six homers allowed in 29 innings. He’ll take on the Padres next week.

Rhett Lowder allowed four runs (three earned) in six innings and got the win in the Reds’ 11-5 victory over the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

Lowder gave up six hits, walked one and struck out one. He improved to 5-8 with the win. Lowder gave the Reds some length by going six innings and Cincinnati’s offense supported him with eight runs while he was still in the game. He has a 5.13 ERA. Lowder is lined up to face the Cubs on the road next weekend.

Rhett Lowder was charged with four runs over 6 2/3 innings in a no-decision against the Cardinals on Monday.

Lowder authored the longest start of his professional career, helping to spare Cincinnati’s bullpen during the nightcap affair of a twin bill at Great American Ball Park. The 24-year-old gave up eight hits, including a solo homer to Iván Herrera. He finished with five strikeouts and also issued two walks. He’ll close out a two-start week with a road matchup against the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

Rhett Lowder allowed two runs in 5 1/3 innings and took the loss against the White Sox on Wednesday.

Lowder gave up seven hits, walked one and struck out four. He fell to 4-8 this season with the loss. Lowder won three of his first five starts this season, but has since won only one of his last 16 starts. He has a 5.15 ERA. Lowder is lined up to face the Cardinals at home next week, though he’s not a recommended fantasy option.

Lowder gave up four hits, walked two and struck out three. He improved to 4-7 with the win. Lowder allowed a solo home run to Lawrence Butler in the first inning and a run on back-to-back hits in the sixth inning. Otherwise, the Athletics didn’t score. He has a 5.26 ERA on the year. Lowder is lined up to face the White Sox on the road next week.

Rhett Lowder pitched decently in a no-decision against the Cardinals on Friday evening, allowing two runs on one hit over his five innings of work.

The right-hander punched out four batters on the evening while issuing two walks. Lowder carried a no-hit bid into the fifth inning but ran into trouble as he plunked Ivan Herrera and then issued a two-out walk to Nathan Chursh. Blaze Jordan followed with a two-run double, which would be the lone hit that Lowder would allow, and caused all the damage against him. He got nine whiffs on 76 offerings on the night, posting a CSW of 28 percent. He’ll try to get back in the win column as he carries a 5.61 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and a 65/37 K/BB ratio (77 innings) into Wednesday’s matchup against the Guardians.

Rhett Lowder lasted just 2 1/3 innings and was torched for eight runs and 11 hits by the Rockies on Saturday.

Lowder threw 48 pitches today. The Rockies swung at 33 of them and put 16 into play for 11 hits. It was Coors Field, but this was still a rare pounding. Since 2020, he’s the ninth road pitcher to give up eight runs in Coors and the second to surrender 11 hits in fewer than three innings, joining Miles Mikolas on Aug. 9, 2022. Lowder dropped to 3-7 with a 5.75 ERA. He belongs in Triple-A at this point, but it probably won’t happen with Nick Lodolo on the IL. It might later; if the Reds stick him in the minors for about six weeks, he’d conclude the season with just less than two years of service time, pushing his free agency back by a year.

Rhett Lowder coughed up six runs over 4 /23 innings while taking a loss against the Brewers on Tuesday.

Lowder only gave up one walk and he was able to strike out eight, but he gave up a whopping 11 hits before exiting. There was some bad luck as the 24-year-old only allowed seven hard hits in the contest, but one was a solo homer by Jake Bauers, and a four-run fourth removed any chance this was going to be a literal or figurative quality start for Lowder. He’ll look to rebound against the Orioles on Sunday.

Reynaldo López will go on the injured list with shoulder discomfort after losing to the Cubs on Monday.

López gave up five runs in just three innings against the Cubs. With Bryce Elder also down and A.J. Smith-Shawver getting sent to the pen, the Braves are running low on starters. López, though, seemed like he was going to be more of a bullpen option in October anyway.

Corbin Carroll

AZ Right Fielder #7

Corbin Carroll had a walkoff two-run homer in the ninth to give the D-backs an 8-7 win over the Marlins on Monday.

Carroll’s homer off Jack Ralston barely stayed fair down the right field line. He also had an RBI single on a blooper to left in the fifth. It was a nice way to shake off a rough start to the month that had seen him go 5-for-33 with a 14/0 K/BB in his last nine games. A loss tonight would have been devastating to Arizona’s postseason chances with the Padres winning. As is, the D-backs are 2 1/2 games behind San Diego, 3 1/2 games behind the Phillies and four games behind the Cubs with 11 to play. They’ll have to overtake one of the three in order to secure a berth.

Corbin Burnes pitched 4 2/3 innings and allowed five runs Monday versus the Marlins.

Making his second start since Tommy John, Burnes allowed three runs in the second and then back-to-back homers to Jakob Marsee and Javier Sanoja in the fourth before eventually departing down 5-4. His cutter was a pretty steady 93 mph early in the game, but it fell off to 91.5 mph in the fourth and fifth. If the regular season were extended by a month, Burnes might be a viable mixed-league starter in October, but the only way we’d know for sure is if the D-backs advance. Burnes should face the Yankees on Sunday.

Juan Morillo struck out three of the four batters he faced in the ninth Monday and picked up a win over the Marins.

Morillo kept Arizona’s deficit at one in the top of the ninth and was credited with the win after Corbin Carroll’s walkoff homer. Morillo blew his last save chance Tuesday, but that’s really been his only misstep in months. He has a 2.28 ERA in 59 1/3 innings, and while the D-backs don’t have a closer, he’s probably the team’s best bet for saves the rest of the way.

Sandy Alcantara yielded four runs in five innings Monday in a no-decision against the Diamondbacks.

Alcantara outpitched Corbin Burnes and left with a one-run lead that later increased to three runs, but Arizona was able to come back from there. This makes four straight starts in which Alcantara has given up at least four runs, taking his ERA from 3.38 to 3.86. At least he did rebound some with six strikeouts tonight, matching his total from his three previous starts combined. He’ll face the Padres next.

Jordan Lawlar went 2-for-4 and hit a two-run homer Monday against the Marlins.

Lawlar nearly had a game-tying homer in the ninth on Sunday, settling for an RBI double instead. Tonight, he did get the homer, sending a ball 412 feet to center to cut the Marlins’ lead to one in the eighth. He also had a steal of second base, with Pavin Smith scoring as the D-backs pulled off a double steal with runners on first and third, Lawlar is hitting .267/.339/.455 with five homers in 113 plate appearances, and he’s overtaken Ryan Waldschmidt in center field in the process.

Jose Siri went 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI and a steal to lead the Angels past the Mariners 6-4 on Monday.

Missing most of last year with injury seemed like it might kill Siri’s career, but he got a chance with the Angels in mid-May and has been decent in hitting .234/.290/.406 in 217 plate appearances. He’s not a starter going forward, and teams typically don’t love using bench spots on players as strikeout prone as Siri, so he’s probably not a lock for a major league contract if he’s set free this winter. The Angels could keep him by paying him around $1.5 million-$2 million in arbitration, but it’d make more sense to set him free and offer him a minor league deal to come back.

Reid Detmers allowed three runs over six innings Monday in a win over the Mariners.

Giving up a three-run homer, in this case to Cal Raleigh, would normally be enough to doom Detmers to a loss or a no-decision. However, with some actual run support tonight, he improved to 6-8 on the year. He had been 1-7 with seven no-decisions while allowing two runs or more, though, really, that he’s won just four of 14 starts in which he allowed one or zero runs is just as ugly. He’s due to face the Twins on Saturday, though since he’s now over his career high for innings, the Angels might play around with his schedule and have him make just one more start the rest of the way.

Ben Joyce pitched around two walks in the ninth for his fifth save Monday against the Mariners.

With two outs, J.P. Crawford hit a liner down the first base line that might have gone for extra bases under normal circumstances. However, the Angels were playing the lines with the tying run on first base, and it turned into an easy grab for Vaughn Grissom. Joyce allowed single runs in his previous two appearances, resulting in a blown save Saturday. Still, he’s been fine in accruing a 3.38 ERA in 13 1/3 innings overall.
