Evaluating Dylan Crews' 2025 season for the Nationals

The Washington Nationals selected outfielder Dylan Crews with the second overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft. A winner of the Golden Spikes award, awarded to the best hitter in college baseball, experts penciled in Crews as a star in the making. Two and a half years removed from the MLB Draft, it hasn't exactly been the easiest road for Crews. Through 374 career at-bats in the Major Leagues, Crews has just a .638 OPS with 12 home runs and 33 runs batted in. The 23-year-old has had a larger adjustment period in the big leagues than most Nats' fans anticipated.
