'He's gonna be a while.' More details emerge on Reds pitcher Rhett Lowder's injury
When Cincinnati Reds pitcher Rhett Lowder appeared in the Great American Ball Park home clubhouse, his discomfort was visible. Lowder told reporters he was just trying to string consecutive "good" days together, and that no timeline had been set for his recovery from the left oblique strain that Reds manager Terry Francona on Friday described as "fairly significant." Advertisement Lowder exited his Thursday start for Triple-A Louisville in the second inning after 12 total pitches. Reds Chicago Cubs Hunter Greene Cincinnati Reds can't hold healthy lead as Chicago Cubs mash way to victory Reds moves signing Garrett Hampson Reds sign utility player Garrett Hampson to one-year deal Reds coaches spoke with Lowder, and Francona on Saturday, May 24 provided more details to media members about the origins of the injury. Francona spoke prior to the second game of the Reds' home series against the Chicago Cubs. "He explained that he had been feeling it for a while," Francona said. "Not terrible, but like guys do, he kind of manipulated his delivery where he could (pitch). Then, I think he got a little frustrated... Then, he went after it and he really blew it out. He's gonna be a while." Rhett Lowder, one of the top Reds prospects, finished the 2024 season in the starting rotation and was impressive, starting six games and producing a 2-2 record and 1.17 ERA. He will miss what Terry Francona called "a while." Lowder, the Reds' 2023 first-round draft pick and one of the organization's top overall prospects, finished the 2024 season in the Reds starting rotation and was impressive, starting six games and producing a 2-2 record and 1.17 ERA. Advertisement Lowder's rehab assignment this spring saw him start in the Arizona Complex League, High-A Dayton and then Louisville, where on May 17 he was hit hard and didn't survive the first inning against Indianapolis. Then came Thursday's start, which lasted just one pitch into the second inning. As of Friday, the Reds' starting rotation was comprised of Hunter Greene (4-2, 2.54 ERA), Andrew Abbott (3-0, 1.80 ERA), Nick Lodolo (4-4, 3.22 ERA), Nick Martinez (2-5, 3.43 ERA) and Brady Singer (5-3, 4.88 ERA). That group is one of the top rotations in the National League, but if the Reds ever want or need to complement it, a prolonged absence by Lowder would limit their options.
