Available off bench Rays manager Kevin Cash told reporters before Sunday's game that Lowe (toe) is available off the bench against the Tigers, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Impact Lowe is out of the lineup Sunday after being removed from Saturday's game against Detroit with a right toe contusion, but his absence is precautionary, with Cash saying the infielder is likely to return to the lineup for Monday's contest against the Nationals. Fantasy players may want to make sure that he does suit up for that contest, but it's clear that Lowe is not dealing with a significant injury.

Out for Sunday vs. DET Lowe is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's contest against the Tigers, Steve Carney of StPeteNine.com reports.
Impact Lowe left Sunday's game against the Tigers with a right toe contusion. The Rays may have sat the infielder even before the injury, as the team is going with an all right-handed lineup against southpaw Joey Wentz.

Leaves with right toe bruise Lowe left Saturday's game against the Tigers with a right toe contusion, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.
Impact Whitaker reports that it's his big toe that suffered the bruise. The infielder was removed from the contest in favor of Isaac Paredes in what appeared to be a maintenance move after the Rays built up a 8-0 lead, but the Rays announced the injury designation shortly after. For now, Lowe should be considered day-to-day with a good chance of missing Sunday's game and returning for the series against the Nationals.

Smacks first spring homer Lowe went 2-for-2 with a solo home run Thursday in a Grapefruit League game against the Blue Jays.
Impact Lowe is coming off an injury-riddled 2022 season during which he racked up only 266 plate appearances due to a back issue. He's been healthy this spring and has five hits across 15 at-bats, though Thursday's homer was his first extra-base knock. Lowe should be a near everyday player at second base once the regular season begins.

Set for spring debut Lowe (back) will serve as Tampa Bay's designated hitter and No. 5 batter in Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Orioles, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.
Impact Lowe looks to be at full strength for spring training after back issues as well as a triceps contusion limited him to just 65 games in 2022. The back concerns may have well played a part in Lowe's downturn in production when he was healthy enough to take the field, as he saw his OPS drop to .691 last season after he posted marks of .850 or better in each of the previous three campaigns. Lowe thus looks like an interesting bounce-back candidate for 2023, and though he'll be making his spring debut at DH, he's eventually expected to settle back into a near-everyday role at second base.
