He’s retiring after 15-year Major League Baseball career and a professional career that spanned parts of 18 seasons. He made an All-Star team and reached the postseason in six of his 15 seasons as a big leaguer.
For simplicity’s sake, we’ll draw the line here at players who either started 40+ games at designated hitter or played more games at DH than at any other position this year.
The third time was not the charm for Jed Lowrie and the Athletics. The 14-year veteran's third stint in Oakland ended on Thursday after Lowrie was released.
It was a matter of time before the Oakland A’s started getting rid of some unnecessary veteran pieces. Jed Lowrie is the first to go. The A’s made a series of moves on Wednesday as they look to see what they have with some of their younger players.
The Oakland Athletics designated veteran infielder Jed Lowrie for assignment on Wednesday. Lowrie, 38, is batting .180 with three homers and 16 RBIs in 50 games this season with the A's.
Lowrie returns after a 10-day absence. He appeared in seven games before hitting the injured list, seeing action at each of designated hitter, first base and second base.
A new contender enters the ring! The Oakland A’s have some positions to fill in their lineup this spring, and one of the biggest is first base. There they must replace All-Star Matt Olson, who was traded to the Braves last month.
There are plenty of openings on the Oakland A’s roster. In theory, when Jed Lowrie was brought back, the A’s had solidified second base, returning to a platoon between he and Tony Kemp.
Salaries reported for the A’s newest signings The Oakland A’s brought back a couple of longtime favorites last week. They reunited with catcher Stephen Vogt after several years apart, and then they re-signed professional hitter Jed Lowrie from last summer’s team.
The Oakland A’s are doing their best to find pieces that can contribute to the 2022 roster as they build for the future. This has involved, as is often the case with the A’s in free agency, scouring the bottom of the barrel to find those players.
The Oakland A’s seem to have figured out the secret to Jed Lowrie. He has appeared in over 100 games just five times in his major league career, all of which happened to be in Oakland.
Jed Lowrie is staying with the Oakland Athletics to extend the infielder's third stint with the club, reaching agreement on a one-year contract.
Few, if anybody, expect the Mets to offer Lowrie a new deal in the offseason.
Lowrie joined the Mets in January 2019, but he's been more a spectator than an active player during most of his stint with the organization.
Lowrie is dealing with a knee problem, and the Mets have not given any timetable for his possible return.
