3 mins agoWashington Nationals shortstop CJ Abrams will remain the team's leadoff hitter in 2025, according to manager Dave Martinez. Abrams held the top spot in the batting order from July of 2023 until August of last year and hit .252/.318/.441 with 111 runs scored, 35 doubles, nine triples, 28 homers, 89 RBI and 56 stolen bases. He was bumped from the leadoff spot after a second-half slump last year that included a demotion to the minors for disciplinary reasons. "CJ's done well up there," Martinez said. "I want him to lead off." It's unclear what the rest of the Nats' lineup will look like, but outfielder James Wood will probably hit second or third, with outfielder Dylan Crews also near the top of the order. The 24-year-old Abrams should be considered a top-10 fantasy shortstop thanks to his power/speed combo, but there are concerns about his plate discipline and his batted-ball metrics, as well as his maturity.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
