The Nationals are promoting outfielder Robert Hassell III due to injuries in their outfield, with Jacob Young dealing with shoulder soreness and Dylan Crews experiencing left side discomfort. Hassell, the fourth young player from the 2022 Juan Soto trade to join the team, was batting .277/.327/.384 with Triple-A Rochester this season, showing improvement with a .339 average in May. Despite a drop in prospect status over the years, he remains a notable player within the organization.
