Dylan Crews, the Nationals’ 22-year-old, 2023 1st Round pick, made his debut in the majors against New York’s Yankees in Washington, D.C. this past August, going 4 for 11 with a walk, two doubles, and his first MLB home run in the series.
Doing what he did in an emotional three-game set, which saw Juan Soto return to the nation’s capital, and the Yankees put former Cy Young winner Gerrit Cole out on the mound in the second game, made an impression on Nats’ GM and President of Baseball Operations Mike Rizzo.
