BALLER MOVE: Stash in Dynasty/Keeper Leagues
CALL-UP ETA: July 2024
ANALYSIS: Dylan Crews, the Washington Nationals' crown jewel outfield prospect, is making waves in the minor leagues. Picked second overall in the 2023 MLB Draft, Crews' rapid ascent through the Washington farm system has caught the eye of both the organization and fantasy managers alike.
The 22-year-old outfielder was recently promoted to Triple-A Rochester where he currently has two home runs and two steals in just five games.

Crews is currently on the waiver wire in 91% of Yahoo Leagues and 98% of ESPN Leagues, he should be stashed in every dynasty/keeper league and is worth monitoring on watch lists in deeper redraft leagues. As the sixth-ranked prospect in all of baseball, Crews can make an impact in fantasy lineups right away, he has plus power and an excellent eye that should translate to a healthy batting average.
Even though his performance may warrant a call-up, the Nationals' rebuilding plan and service time considerations should keep him in the minors for the foreseeable future, however, a September debut isn't out of the question.
