Young Nationals star validates outstanding season with NL Silver Slugger finalist nod

The 2025 season was a frustrating one for the Washington Nationals, as the team ended up having a worse record than they had in previous years despite having more talent. It was tough to watch for a vast majority of the season, but there were some bright spots that emerged.

A few of those bright spots appeared in the outfield, as between rookie standout Daylen Lile and young phenom James Wood, it looks like the team has a cemented outfield duo for the future. Of course, the team will hope Dylan Crews can emerge alongside them as well, but he has a long way to go with his development.
