Outlook Dylan Crews
Dylan Crews Searches for Timing in Volatile Outfield Mix
Since his mid-May recall, Crews has struggled to establish rhythm, batting .200 with one home run and one stolen base over his last 14 days. The young outfielder currently serves as a key reserve in a crowded outfield for the third-place Nationals (31-32), who enter the weekend riding a three-game losing streak.
His current .208 batting average aligns with his career baseline, but our projection model expects him to settle in around a .231 average with 10 home runs and 15 stolen bases over 497 at-bats. While the speed-and-power upside remains highly intriguing for the long haul, fantasy managers must endure these expected rookie growing pains.
Looking ahead, Washington plays three remaining road games this week in Arizona, matching up against Merrill Kelly (5.06 ERA), Eduardo Rodriguez (2.24 ERA), and Michael Soroka (3.49 ERA). Due to his part-time role and cold bat, Crews is a Sit for this weekly stretch.

Outlook Bryce Eldridge
Giants prospect Bryce Eldridge is tearing up big-league pitching during a scorching hot streak.
The Giants' prized prospect is on a phenomenal run, batting .353 with six doubles and a 1.068 OPS over his last 11 games. This scorching stretch has locked him into the primary designated hitter role for San Francisco, providing a massive offensive spark for the fourth-place Giants (24-38) as they navigate key injuries.
While his current production dwarfs our .231 projected season average, his elite power is undeniable, highlighted by a recent 453-foot blast. Eldridge possesses outstanding plate discipline, supported by our projected .391 season OBP, indicating that even when the average cools down, he will remain a highly productive asset.
The Giants have four remaining road games this week, featuring matchups against Milwaukee and Chicago. He faces tough tests in Coleman Crow (3.14 ERA) and Ben Brown (1.92 ERA) before encountering friendlier pitching in Edward Cabrera (4.00 ERA) and Jameson Taillon (5.13 ERA). With his bat fully dialed in, he is a fantastic lineup option. Verdict: Start.
