Late-season return not ruled out
Reds manager Terry Francona indicated Sunday that Lowder (oblique) could return before the end of the season, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.
Analysis
Lowder has been shelved all season, first with a forearm injury and then with a severe oblique strain, but he's been throwing off a mound and is scheduled for two more bullpen sessions this week on Tuesday and Friday. Francona suggested Sunday that the most important thing for Lowder is to enter the offseason knowing he's healthy, but the young righty still has a chance to help the big club late in the year.

Begins throwing program
Lowder (forearm/oblique) threw a side session earlier this week and is expected to do so again Friday in front of team staff when the Reds are in Arizona, MLB.com reports.
Analysis
The report indicates Lowder's side session went well, which is encouraging news for the team's 2024 first-round draft pick. The right-hander is not expected to pitch for Cincinnati or any of its affiliates this season but is expected to have a normal offseason, which will include the Arizona Fall League.
