BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 175
CURRENT ADP: ~194 overall
ANALYSIS: It's quite shocking to see where Lowe is currently going in drafts, and you can often select him in the final two rounds. His ADP currently sits at 175, which is too low for a player who has been a consistent offensive piece for one of the top offenses in baseball. Lowe hits behind elite offensive players in Marcus Semien and Corey Seager and has been a consistent fantasy option over the past three years.
Lowe might be coming off a down year in 2023, as he hit .262 with 17 HRs, 82 RBI, and 38 doubles, but those are certainly solid numbers for a player going in the 19th round of fantasy baseball drafts. The Rangers first baseman also walked 93 times last season, or 12.8% of the time, which landed him in the 90th percentile in the entire league.

There's a lot to like about Lowe in fantasy this year. He hits third in an offense that averaged the third-most runs per game in 2023 (5.46), and he will have plenty of chances to drive in runs with Marcus Semien and Seager hitting in front of him. His 82 RBI last year were a career-high, and that number should only increase in 2024. Lowe is also just one year removed from a 27-home run season, so expect him to hit somewhere between 22-25 HRs and provide value in the runs and RBI categories, too.
