Lowrie's medical evaluation Friday revealed a hairline fracture in his right wrist, and he'll wear a splint for the next four weeks, the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lowrie visited with hand specialist Dr. Thomas Melhoff in Houston, and the discovery of the hairline fracture will cause the veteran to start the offseason limited by the splint. Lowrie is headed for unrestricted free agency this offseason, and after bouncing back to an extent in 2021 following two injury-marred seasons, the Athletics could be interested in a reunion at the right salary.
