Lowder, Collier named to National League All-Star Futures Game Roster
MLB announced the rosters for the 2024 MLB All-Star Futures Game, and two of the Reds’ top prospects will represent the club at this year’s event in Arlington, Texas.
RHP Rhett Lowder, rated the team's No. 1 prospect according to MLB Pipeline, and INF Cam Collier (ranked No. 3) have been selected as part of this year's National League squad.
Selected seventh overall by the Reds in last year's draft, Rhett Lowder has acclimated nicely in his first professional season. The Wake Forest product has already moved on to Double-A Chattanooga after posting a 2.49 ERA in five starts with Advanced-A Dayton. In 14 starts between the two stops, Lowder has 71 strikeouts to just 15 walks in 64 1/3 innings.
A Reds first rounder in 2022, Cam Collier has emerged in his second full pro season. After spending 2023 with Single-A Daytona, Collier has been a force with the Dayton Dragons, pacing the offense with 13 home runs and 47 RBIs in his first 70 games.
Fans can see Lowder and Collier in action at the MLB All-Star Futures Game on Saturday, July 13! The game is scheduled to be broadcast live from Globe Life Field at 4 p.m. ET on MLB Network and will be simulcast on MLB.tv, MLB.com and in the MLB App.
