The Pittsburgh Pirates’ offseason acquisition of Brandon Lowe has proven beneficial, as he leads all second basemen with 27 home runs, 80 RBI, and a .480 slugging percentage, while batting .253 with a .798 OPS and a 3.4 fWAR.

Journalist John Perrotto reports the team is likely to propose a two-year, $30 million contract to Lowe this winter, aiming to secure him before a potential 2027 lockout.
