The Nationals have optioned outfielder Dylan Crews to Triple-A Rochester, likely setting their Opening Day outfield as James Wood, Jacob Young, and Daylen Lile. Once a top prospect after being drafted second overall in 2023, Crews has struggled in the majors, posting a .211/.282/.352 line and suffering an injury in 2025. His demotion aims to provide him with regular playing time to regain form, while the team’s rebuilding strategy continues. This move could also impact his service time and future contract status.
