The Angels recalled Lowe from Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday. He'll start in center field and bat eighth in the Angels' series finale with the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Lowe opened the season on the strong side of a platoon in left field, but the Angels demoted him to Triple-A on May 22 after he struggled to a .184/.226/.320 slash line with a 29.1 percent strikeout rate over 134 plate appearances. While handling a regular role for Salt Lake over the past month, Lowe has trimmed his strikeout rate to 26.2 percent while producing a 1.014 OPS, though that strong production comes with the caveat that he did his damage in hitter-friendly parks in the Pacific Coast League. He received a call-up to the Angels nonetheless, though Lowe may be in store for only a short-term stay with the big club after everyday center fielder Jose Siri (personal) was placed on the paternity list in a corresponding move.
