| News: Lowrie went 2-for-5 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored Monday in Game 1 of a doubleheader against the Rockies. | Impact: Lowrie already has eight home runs this season, which is one less than his career high that he set in 2010. Injuries have been a problem for Lowrie throughout his career, but he's been relatively healthy so far this season and has been one of the few bright spots in the Astros' lineup.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Lowrie is not in the starting lineup for the second game of Monday's doubleheader against the Rockies, the Houston Chronicle reports. | Impact: Lowrie, one of the pleasant surprises at the shortstop position in fantasy leagues this season, will get a rest in the second game of the series in favor of Marwin Gonzalez. Expect him to return to the starting lineup for the Astros' next game on Wednesday.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Lowrie went 3-for-4 with a solo homer, a stolen base and two runs scored in Monday's win over the Cubs. | Impact: With a nice combination of pop and on-base skills, Lowrie is looking more like the player who posted a .907 OPS with the Red Sox in 2010 than the .685 mark he carried over 309 at-bats last season. The hits Monday extended Lowrie's current hitting streak to six games, while he's now gone deep five times in his last 68 at-bats.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Lowrie hit a two-run homer off Shaun Marcum during Thursday's win over Milwaukee. | Impact: Lowrie had been scuffling a bit at the plate, with just four hits in his previous 33 at-bats. He offers some pop from the shortstop position, but just as with the rest of the Astros' order, inconsistency is to be expected.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Lowrie will not be in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies, Astros Senior Director of Social Media Alyson Footer reports. | Impact: It's a planned day off for Lowrie, who will be replaced at shortstop by Marwin Gonzalez. With four home runs and 12 RBI to go along with a .275 average, Lowrie has been a fairly serviceable fantasy option at his position.(RotoWire, ) |
