Nationals' Dylan Crews: Pops sixth homer
Rotowire
Crews went 1-for-3 with a walk, a solo home run and a second run scored in Sunday's loss to the Pirates.
Getting another start in center field in place of Jacob Young (hand), Crews took Gregory Soto deep in the eighth inning for the Nationals' final run in an 11-5 loss, and his sixth long ball of the season. Crews snapped a 13-game power drought with the blast, but he's remained somewhat productive during that time. Over his last 15 contests, the 24-year-old sports a .310/.385/.466 slash line with three doubles, two homers, three steals, four RBI and 12 runs.

Nationals' Dylan Crews: Three hits in loss to Philly
Rotowire
Crews went 3-for-4 with two runs scored in Thursday's loss to the Phillies.
The 24-year-old may finally be showing signs of living up to his draft billing after being the second overall pick in the 2023 First-Year Player Draft. Crews has four multi-hit performances in the last six games, batting .400 (10-for-25) over that surge with two doubles, a homer, a steal, three RBI and eight runs. Crews also has a 0:7 BB:K during that stretch, and a 2:28 BB:K in 128 MLB plate appearances this season as plate discipline remains his biggest hurdle.
Crews went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Rays.
Crews singled and scored in the second inning before hitting what proved to be a crucial solo shot in the ninth. The 24-year-old has hit safely in seven of his past nine games, going deep three times with nine RBI and seven runs scored during that stretch. On the year, he's still slashing a lowly .198/.236/.366 with five homers, 15 RBI, 13 runs scored and two steals across 106 plate appearances.

Nationals' Dylan Crews: Extends hit streak with homer
Rotowire
Crews went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Monday's win over the Royals.
The 24-year-old outfielder took Mason Black deep in the fifth inning to wrap up the scoring in a 7-3 victory. Crews has hit safely and driven in at least one run in five straight games, and while he doesn't have a multi-hit performance during that span, he does have two of his four homers on the year. Since getting called up in mid-May, Crews is slashing .195/.239/.356 with two steals, 11 runs and 13 RBI in 23 contests.
Crews went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's loss to the Mariners.
The 24-year-old outfielder got hold of a 3-0 fastball from Bryce Miller to lead off in the eighth inning and crushed it 440 feet to center field. Crews is still struggling to find his footing in the majors, slashing .189/.241/.324 through 20 games since being called up in mid-May with three homers, two steals, eight runs and eight RBI.

Nationals' Dylan Crews: Not ready to start
Rotowire
Crews (hand) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Marlins, Mark Zuckerman of NatsJournal.com reports.
Crews will miss out on a second straight start after Nationals manager Blake Butera relayed Sunday that the outfielder's hand had swelled up after being hit by a pitch in Saturday's 9-4 win over the Padres, per Danielle Allentuck of The Washington Post. The Nationals seem to be viewing Crews as day-to-day for the time being, but if he's unable to play at any point during the three-game series with Miami, a move to the injured list would become more likely.

Rotowire
Crews was scratched from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres for unspecified reasons.
The Nationals haven't officially announced an injury, but Crews is presumably banged up after being hit by a pitch in the hand/wrist area during Saturday's contest. He should be considered day-to-day until the team updates his status.

Nationals' Dylan Crews: Taking seat Wednesday
Rotowire
Crews is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.
For the first time since being called up from Triple-A Rochester on May 19, Crews will head to the bench while the Nationals go with Daylen Lile, Jacob Young and James Wood as their starters in the outfield and Jose Tena as their designated hitter. Crews has gotten on base in each of his first eight contests with Washington, slashing .242/.265/.364 with a solo home run, a stolen base and an additional run.
Crews went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 2-0 win over Atlanta.
Crews launched what proved to be the game-winning homer off Grant Holmes in the top of the fourth inning. While it's amounted to just a .200 average through 21 plate appearances, he's hit safely in four of five games since rejoining the Nationals on Tuesday. The former top prospect will need to do more to matter in most fantasy formats, but he has flashed his power-speed upside with a steal Friday and Saturday's long ball.

Nationals' Dylan Crews: Swipes first bag
Rotowire
Crews went 1-for-5 with a stolen base in Friday's loss to Atlanta.
The steal was the first in four games for Crews since he was called up to make his season debut with the Nationals. The 24-year-old hasn't made much of an impact otherwise, however, batting .188 (3-for-16) with zero extra-base hits, zero RBI and one run. Washington will give the second overall pick in the 2023 First-Year Player Draft plenty of chances to establish himself as an MLB regular, and Crews did bring some momentum with him to the majors after slashing .291/.339/.527 over 59 May plate appearances for Triple-A Rochester.

He is starting in center field and batting sixth in Tuesday's contest versus the Mets.
