Dylan Crews - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes for Week 22 (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Must-Stash 

CALL-UP ETA: Late August/Early September

ANALYSIS: Dylan Crews, the second overall pick in the 2023 MLB draft, currently ranks as the third-best prospect in baseball (according to MLB Pipeline). The young phenom has quickly worked his way up all throughout the minor leagues and currently finds himself in Triple-A.

Through 43 games (182 at-bats) with Rochester, Crews is slashing .258/.335/.426 with seven homers and 23 RBI. He has been especially hot as of late though, slashing .308/.391/.615 in his last ten games.

Dylan Crews has been on base in 8 straight and has HR in 3 of the last 4.

Since July 5: .280/.376/.533 14 xbh 14% K/10% BB
79% con/88% ZCon/25% chase
90.2 mph average EV/106.5 90thEV

Crews looks like a future 55 in MLB and that’s great even at pick 2.pic.twitter.com/xVDfSIVphF

Crews has a rare combination of abilities that only a few players in the world can say they possess. He has 60-grade hitting, power, and speed. At only 22 years old, Crews has shown incredible maturity at the plate and in the field.

There is not all that much more to say about Crews that baseball fans don’t already know. As the Washington Nationals are currently one of the worst teams in baseball, they are playing for the future and using the rest of their games in 2024 to see what exactly they have for 2025 and beyond. A call-up for Crews seems imminent in order for him to show off his skills on the grandest stage of them all.

Once the call is made, Crews is the type of talent that will immediately impact games. He will quickly find his way into the everyday lineup and will serve as a valuable fantasy player for the rest of 2024 and beyond. Fantasy managers should keep Crews on their radar/watchlist and should absolutely stash.
