When the Reds picked Rhett Lowder with the seventh pick in the 2023 MLB Draft, they knew he was talented. Usually rookies take time to flash their potential, but the 21-year-old is off to an impressive start.

Watch video of Lowder throwing during Sunday's session below, including a clop of him facing off against Tyler Stephenson:

Rhett Lowder elicited a “that was awesome” from his catcher Austin Wynns and Hunter Greene was front and center behind backstop with several Reds officials and coaches also watching. His fastball, slider and change on display to Tyler Stephenson here. pic.twitter.com/m6QJ1hTmPa
