Lowe returns to right field and is batting fifth following a three-game absence due to right oblique tightness. The 27-year-old power/speed combo outfielder has battled oblique issues the past two seasons, so it’s an encouraging sign that he didn’t end up requiring a trip to the injured list.

It’s a positive sign that Lowe hasn’t required a trip to the injured list, but he’ll sit out his third straight contest on Tuesday night due to an ongoing right oblique issue. It’ll be Jake Mangum taking over in right field with Everson Pereira in center field against his former team on Tuesday night.

Lowe is expected to avoid a trip to the injured list, but he’ll sit out Sunday’s contest at Oracle Park after being scratched earlier this weekend due to right oblique tightness. It’ll be Jake Mangum moving over to right field with Everson Pereira taking over in center field. The 27-year-old outfielder is presumably day-to-day heading into Tuesday’s pivotal series opener against the Yankees.

Lowe has been replaced by Everson Pereira in the lineup. No reason has been given for why Lowe won’t play, but there should be an update on his status shortly.
