#9. LHP, Zac Lowther 

Rated as the Orioles 8th best prospect by MLB Pipeline, Zac Lowther has put together a dominant season for the Bowie Baysox (AA).

In 14 starts in Double-A Bowie this season Lowther has posted an outstanding 2.03 ERA as opposing batters are hitting just .183 against him.

Lowther was the Orioles second competitive balance round selection in 2017 after a dominant college carer at Xavier. Thus far his minor league carer has been just as dominant putting him on a fast path to the majors.

The left-hander is an arm that may just be atop of the Orioles starting rotation in the near future which should have fans excited for his eventual call-up to Baltimore.
