Pirates extended a qualifying offer to 2B Brandon Lowe

That means Lowe has a one-year, $23.15 million offer on the table from the Pirates after hitting .260/.331/.493 with 35 home runs, 94 runs scored, and 96 RBI in 656 plate appearances. Lowe has until November 17th to accept or deny the offer. If he denies and signs elsewhere, the Pirates will get a draft pick, but he and the Pirates can still negotiate other contracts during this time.

Brandon Lowe crushed his 35th home run of the season in Saturday’s loss to the Tigers.

Lowe took Detroit starter Justin Verlander deep in the fourth inning for his seventh round-tripper since the beginning of September. The 32-year-old second baseman, who has also made a massive leap from a defensive metrics standpoint, has expressed a desire to remain in Pittsburgh long-term. He figures to have plenty of potential suitors when he reaches free agency in a couple weeks.

Brandon Lowe finished 2-for-4 with a homer that accounted for the Pirates’ lone run Wednesday against the Cardinals.

After a mediocre August, Lowe has bounced back with his best month or an excellent 2026 season, hitting .338/.413/.620 with six homers in 19 games in September. Still, it looks like he’s going to finish a little short of 100 runs scored or RBI. He has 93 runs scored and 94 RBI with four to play.

Brandon Lowe connected on his 30th homer Tuesday for the Pirates’ lone run against the Brewers.

The homer came off reliever DL Hall, making it his seventh of the year against a lefty. It’s his third 30-homer season; he had 39 in 2021 and 31 last year. That’s really mostly about health, though; he slugs the same every year, but the 30-homer seasons are the only years of his career in which he’s topped 110 games.

Brandon Lowe went 4-for-5 with a homer and scored the winning run in the ninth as the Pirates bested the Giants 13-12 on Tuesday.

The game ended on an Osleivis Basabe error with two outs in the ninth; he made a diving play at third on Rafael Flores Jr.'s grounder but still had plenty of time to make a good throw. Instead, he bounced it, and Rafael Devers failed to make the pick at first base, allowing Lowe to score from third. Lowe previously hit his 29th homer in the seventh inning. It’s his first four-hit game of the year.
