Orioles prospect season in review: Zac Lowther

For Bowie’s Zachary William Lowther, it was a huge 2019—and this wasn’t even the season he shared Orioles Minor League Pitcher of the Year honors with Keegan Akin. That’d be 2018, when Lowther put up a sparkling 2.18 ERA to go with an 8-4 record while splitting the season between Delmarva and Frederick.

Would Lowther’s stuff hold up at the higher levels? Well, I’m glad you asked. In a full 2019 season with the Double-A Bowie Baysox, the 6’2, 235-lb. lefty pitched to a 13-7 record with a 2.55 ERA, a 1.11 WHIP, and 154 strikeouts in 148 innings.
