MLB Pipeline shared some spray charts of the most productive line drive and flyball hitters, and among those luckiest/most effective (which is it?), Rays prospect Nate Lowe ranked 9th!

#Rays No. 13 prospect Nate Lowe had improved bat speed and a looser, more athletic swing in a breakout 2018 campaign.

Not only did he hit 27 HRs, but he also drove the ball extremely well. More from @GoldenSombrero: https://t.co/EtRw6fqx5w pic.twitter.com/HUVRWeAv5j— MLB Pipeline (@MLBPipeline) January 3, 2019

Lowe began his Rays career more famously as the older brother of first round draft pick Josh Lowe, but has emerged as the higher ranked prospect and will likely break into the majors in 2019.
